Reading: Students are expected to read their take home book every night and learn to read the high frequency words that are sent home. Words the students don’t know will be sent home for them to learn in their red reader bag. Please check the bag daily so you know which words need to be practised. Continual work on the phonics will be implemented in class activities daily. Knowing the sounds of the alphabet and recognising the letters is fundamental to your child's reading and writing development at this level. Children will develop reading strategies as they become more independent and apply their phonemic knowledge when reading.

Writing: Students will be writing recounts of events and recording simple procedures using their knowledge of letters and sounds. They will be involved in formal handwriting sessions and learn to form the letters of the alphabet correctly.

Speaking and Listening: Students will deliver short oral presentations to peers, using appropriate voice levels and speaking clearly.
