Welcome to
The Little Pirates
Hello and welcome to the class page of The Little Pirates.
My name is Miss Forsyth and I am class teacher of Year 1F. Our class is supported by the wonderful Miss Berry and Miss Showemimo.
Our class contains enthusiastic, happy and charismatic children. We aim to work hard, but laugh a lot along the way!
Keep up to date with our learning journey by checking back on this page regularly. It does contain some important information.

Spellings
Rainbow spellings will be assessed every Friday. Please help your child to practise these throughout the week to be ready for the Friday morning test!
SNACK
It is important to note that your child will be provided with a daily snack. However, children can bring a healthy snack for afternoon playtime such as fruit or vegetables. We also encourage your child to drink water in class throughout the day. Please provide a plastic bottle filled with water only. Milk is also available upon application.
Reading
Children will have a reading book appropriate to their reading level and a book chosen by themselves to read for pleasure. Accompanying these books are their reading diaries, where you can write comments on their reading daily. Please do listen to your child read on a regular basis. It is important to take time to read to your child too. I say 'little but often' is the best way to engage those children!
By the end of year 1 your child will have taken the National Phonics Screening Check.
Homework
In year 1 we will focus on learning number bonds to 10 and 20.
We encourage you to read three times per week with your child. This supports your child to read smoothly.
