We would love to hear what you have been getting up to, during your time at home.

If you would like to write to us, get your grown up to take a photo of your letter and send it us at year1team@stgeorgesschool.org.uk 

Your class teacher will then do her best to reply, during the school hours.

Parents, please look at the checklist to find what your child should be trying to use in their writing. 

Checklist:

• Beautiful handwriting – tall (t, h, l, b, d…) short (a, c, s, r…) and hanging (g, y, p…) letters
• Finger spaces – making sure there is a finger space between each word
• Capital letters – capital letters for names and at the start of a sentence
• Phonics sounding – using their phonics knowledge to sound/spell words
• Full stop – using a full stop at the end of a sentence

Remember, to make your writing more interesting you can use adjectives.

We look forward to seeing your writing!
