KS1 meeting
Wednesday 20th September 2017

2. To share expectations for each year group in KS1 (year 1 and year 2).
The aim:
To share expectations for each year group in KS1
(year 1 and year 2).

3. Learning to read Phonics in year 1(building on sounds from Reception)
Learn to recognise different sounds e.g. ai, ay, ee, ea, oy, er, ur, ew, ue (Phase 3, 4 and 5 sounds)
Read words with these sounds by sounding out and blending: e.g. s-t-r-ea-m
(must say sound correctly: th-v, th-f)
End of year 1 (June) – phonics screening:
Children read 40 words (real and nonsense). Pass is 32 words. If not passed, children get another chance in year 2.

4. Learning to read Spelling in year 2 (building on sounds from year 1)
Learn other ways of spelling sounds: e.g.
j – jump, hedge, cage
Read words with these sounds by sounding out and blending: e.g. h-e-dge
(must say sound correctly)
Look at spelling patterns: e.g. sky, shy, fly, dry, try, July

5. Learning to read Learn to use prefixes and suffixes
(un-, -s/es, -er, -est, -ing, -ed, -ful, -less, -ment, -ness, -ly: e.g.
helper=help+er; untie= un+tie
Common exception words – the words we cannot read by sounding out. They have tricky parts. E.g. was, are, he, eye, could, should.
Weekly spelling cycle- Monday-Friday: teach/practise - Monday-Thursday,
spelling test – Friday
Spelling homework – get on Monday,Friday-Y1

6. Learning to read books
Reading in school is a mixture of whole class, group and individual.
Home:
– Listen to your child reading few pages of their book, parent to sign in the reading record, record the number of the page the child read up to.
- Books are changed as soon as the reading record is signed and child can tell a bit about what they have read. (Reading chart)
- Read books to your children (library) because reading is fun.

7. Learning to read books Child holds the book and turns the pages.
Read the title, look at the picture on the front cover and predict what might happen in the story.
Read sentences by sounding out unfamiliar words.
Say familiar words without sounding out such as: the, we, he, I, was, can, mam, dad
To build fluency- reread a sentence from the beginning once they sounded out a word in a sentence.
e.g. I went to the beach with my dad.

8. Learning to read books Check understanding- comprehension:
Ask questions about the text (story or fact book) –Questions are at the back of the book.
Retell the story or tell you some facts they found out/remembered if it is non-fiction/fact book.
Don’t know the meaning of the word – reread the sentence again and have a guess what it might mean. If not just tell then.
e.g. “I don’t like cold soup!” raged the king.
How does the character feel? Why?/How do you know?

9. Learning to read books Year 2 (May)- Reading test
Read a text, read questions and write quite detailed answers.
Most answers are in the text but children need to find them. Some answers they need to work out – infer.
e.g. “I don’t like cold soup!” raged the king.
How does the king feel?
Find a word that tells you that the king was angry.

10. r, o, v, w – horizontal joins.
Learning to write
Handwriting
Year 1 - Learn to form the letters in families starting from the line and ending with a flick (cursive): e.g. i, l, t, u, y, j
Year 2 – learn to join letters (diagonal and horizontal joins):
e.g. l, i, t, m, b – diagonal joins,
r, o, v, w – horizontal joins.

11. Learning to write
Write words with the sounds they learnt by sounding out: e.g. s-t-r-ea-m
Write common exception words: e.g. was, he, she, eye, could, should, would
Write sentences with the words:
(Think it, Say it, Remember it, Write it, Read it to check)
Sentences must make sense (miss a word or write a word twice)
A capital letter to start each sentence.
End the sentence with a . or ? or !

12. Learning to write Write to entertain – stories,
to inform – instructions, recounts
1.Plan their story (draw a story map and write key words)
2.Tell their story in order.
3. Write their story sentence by sentence.
4. Proofread their story for grammar, spelling and punctuation.

13. Mathematics year 1 Count to and across 100, forwards and backwards
