Year 1
Welcome 1T and 1/2H
1T - Mrs Tite and Miss Brennan, 1/2H - Miss Harris and Mrs Pitt
We have had a great start to the year so far. The children have come in to school with lovely smiles and have enjoyed seeing their friends again. Although the daily routine is very different to what they are used to they are adapting well and are comfortable in their new classrooms. We look forward to spending the year with them all and watching them develop both socially and academically.
We have been enjoying seeing all the homework activities your child has been completing. If you have pictures you would like to share with us, we have now sorted out our email address so please feel free to email y1sh@pelsallvillage.co.uk. We look forward to seeing your work.
You can also use this address if you have an queries for Mrs Tite or Miss Harris and we'll get back to you as quickly as we can. Please note, we will check this email address once a week so if you have something urgent please let a member of staff know that you've emailed and then we can have a look.
Thank you.

Follow the link and watch this Percy the Park Keeper story. If you have a copy of the book please read it to your child. Ask your child to retell the story using the pictures as prompts.
Spellings
Spellings are in line with the rest of the school. Turn learning into a game, have fun with them. See if they can use the words in sentences. Repeated practice and use is a great way to learn them, and for your children to feel confident with them.
