Welcome to our Infant class.
Meet the team
Miss Pickering
Infant Teacher
In the Infant class, we have Reception, Year 1 and Year 2. We work on a two year rolling curriculum for Year 1 and Year 2 and have a separate curriculum for Reception.
Our PE day is Monday and Wednesday.
Phonics and Reading
In Infants, we follow the Pearson Bug Club phonics and reading scheme. They begin with wordless books before we begin Phase 2, which introduces the different phonemes.
In Year 1, we continue with the Bug Club phonics scheme, working through Phase 5 and Phase 6 phonemes looking at alternate pronunciation and spelling of words.
In Year 2, we revisit Phase 5 and 6 to further consolidate our phonetic knowledge.
Children will be allocated a book to read at home based on their phonics knowledge and will progress through the levels as their knowledge increases.
