Key Messages
Spring term
Our focus texts for the Spring term will be 'Cinnamon' and a selection of different fables from 'Greatest Animal Stories'.
At the end of Year 1, normally the second week of June, children will sit the Phonics Screening Test. This seeks to test whether children have learned to decode words using phonics to the required level. Children are expected to sound out and blend graphemes to read simple words. Throughout the year, we will be sitting various practise tests to help prepare the children and every day children will be taught two phonic sessions. Below you will find some phonic assessment materials that may support you at home to help your child.
