Welcome to class amazing class 1H! We are 30 hard-working, smiling superstar learners who love to ask questions about the world around us. We always work to be the best that we can be and making ourselves proud. By using our growth mindset and can-do attitude, we know that we can face any challenge with a smile and never give up! As a class we love to support each other and celebrate each other’s successes. We are kind to our peers and ensure everybody feels safe and happy in our class. Our classroom is bright and stimulating. We use displays around the classroom to help us when completing work such as our vocabulary board, writing prompts and our giant number line (which is our favourite)! We love exploring our role-play area, which is currently a safari school which links to our vibrant jungle themed reading area which is filled with furry friends to help us read. We have had a fantastic start to our learning in year 1 and we are excited about the rest of the year.
We worked together as a class to agree on how we can make our classroom a great place to be and came up with our class rules that link to our MASTER values. These are

Statutory testing (applicable to Reception / Y1 / Y2 / Y4 & Y6)
This year in Year 1, we will be working towards doing our Phonics Screen, which is a statutory assessment of 40 words to read. We will do this week commencing 10th June 2024. The children will carry out the test one to one with the class teacher; it doesn’t usually take very long and is done in a stress free way for your child. The results of the test will be shared with parents in the end of year report. We practise and extend our phonics knowledge every day and there will be a workshop for parents about the Phonics Screen coming soon.
We hope you have enjoyed learning about our amazing 1H class and thank you for reading about us. We will be sharing our year 1 learning journey with you throughout the year with regular updates on dojo.

Our trips this year
Statutory testing
In Year One, all children must be assessed on their phonic knowledge and complete the Phonics Screening Check. This test is designed to assess your child’s reading skills via 40 words, split into 2 sections. Half of the words will be real words and, the other half will be pseudo-words (alien’ words or ‘nonsense’ words). These pseudo-words assess whether children can use their phonic decoding skills to read any word even if they haven’t come across the word before or are unaware of the word’s meaning. The Phonics Screening Check takes place in June and the results are reported to parents at the end of the year as part of the annual report. This year, the Phonics Screening Check with take place during the week commencing 10th June 2024. The test itself will be carried out by your child’s class teacher. Each child will take their test individually on a one to one basis. Throughout the year, we regularly assess children’s progress in Year One, to ensure that children are on track to pass the screening test. Where this is not the case, we will plan to meet children’s needs accordingly. We will ensure all children are as well prepared as they can be before taking the test by practising and completing mock tests.
We hope you have enjoyed learning about fabulous 1SB and thank you for reading about us. We will be sharing our learning with you over the year so keep a look out.
