Active Learning ZoneLearning which engages and challenges children’s thinking using real-life and imaginary situations. It takes full advantage of the opportunities for learning presented by:
• spontaneous play• planned, purposeful play• investigating and exploring• events and life experiences• focused learning and teaching
"I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand."
-- Confucius

• First 30 – 45mins: Active Learning Zone– children have free choice as to the activities they participate in. These may be structured or unstructured
• At present the majority of activities are less structured but will develop more structure as the year progresses
i.e. Free play in water will develop into activities related to volume

Reading
Use of three integrated strategies
1. Phonics - Bug Club2. High frequency words3. Reading book skills
On this basis reading grows
![Page 11: Welcome to Primary 1 with the Primary 1 Team. Our Team Mrs Wilkinson Mrs Smith Mrs Wilson Mrs Allan Ms Van Kampen Mrs Feeley Primary 1, room 2 Primary](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022072015/56649edc5503460f94bec01e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
1. Bug Club (phonics)
• Each letter is taught in a very active way using a variety of approaches
• As we move along we learn that two letters together can make a sound
• When we have learnt 7 or 8 letters we start putting these together and blending
c atp ats at
![Page 12: Welcome to Primary 1 with the Primary 1 Team. Our Team Mrs Wilkinson Mrs Smith Mrs Wilson Mrs Allan Ms Van Kampen Mrs Feeley Primary 1, room 2 Primary](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022072015/56649edc5503460f94bec01e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• We learn that there are vowels and that vowels have two sounds.
• Using all this information we very quickly learn to decode words
• Every night as part of our reading homework you will have the opportunity to practise this with your child using the sound board
• Parents can choose to buy a magnetic pack similar to the ones used in class if they wish.
An information sheet will come home when it is time to start this
![Page 13: Welcome to Primary 1 with the Primary 1 Team. Our Team Mrs Wilkinson Mrs Smith Mrs Wilson Mrs Allan Ms Van Kampen Mrs Feeley Primary 1, room 2 Primary](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022072015/56649edc5503460f94bec01e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
2. High Frequency Words
• We have compiled a set of 40 words that your child needs to know to progress with his/her reading and writing skills
• You will be given 2/3 words each week to learn
• You will find these words in the reading diary
• At present we are learning the common reading book words – Kipper, Biff and Chip
![Page 14: Welcome to Primary 1 with the Primary 1 Team. Our Team Mrs Wilkinson Mrs Smith Mrs Wilson Mrs Allan Ms Van Kampen Mrs Feeley Primary 1, room 2 Primary](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022072015/56649edc5503460f94bec01e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
3. Reading Book Skills• It must be fun!• Discuss the story with your child• First night – read the book to your child• Second night - read together• Third night – your child reads it
If your child wishes to read it every night then this is fine.

• It is vital that you carry out all three aspects of the reading to support your child
• Approximately 2 books a week
