Welcome to Year 1

---

 Sing along and learn all about numbers with the Numberblocks!  Watch episodes on the CBeebies website and BBC iPlayer. 

A range of games and activities that can be played at home to build calculation skill and develop strategic thinking. They are all good fun too!

 These short videos are intended to provide primary school pupils with interactive lessons while they are at home. It is important that, within each batch, they are watched in the suggested order. Most lessons are 15 to 20 minutes long, each ending with suggested follow-up tasks. All lessons use the Teaching for Mastery approach to maths that we use in school. Five lessons are added every week. Start with Week 1 Lesson 1.

Watch as the letters of the alphabet tell stories and make words using phonics. Play the learning game, watch clips and print colouring pages on the CBeebies website. Earlier episodes are available on YouTube. 

Children in school learn to read and spell some words through the use of phonics.
Phonics lessons often include a new phoneme (sound) pattern for the children to learn. This game groups words by their phoneme. Select a pattern, listen to the word and select the correct egg. Each correct answer gets a scratch on the tree. Each round has ten words. Incorrect answers will be displayed at the end. 

APOLOGIES: This particular game does not currently work on iOS devices.  

Answer silly questions following phonic patterns taught in Y1.
