How can we prepare to move to a new year group?
As we are coming to the end of Year 1, it is time to think about what it means to move to a new year group.
Talk with your partner:
What will change?
What will stay the same?
For some, the opportunity to move to a new year group will be exciting. For others, it might be worrying.
Remember- there are no right or wrong emotions. Everyone is unique.
Let's discuss:
What can we expect to happen?
- Getting to know a new teacher
- Moving to a new classroom
- Staying in the same unit, using the same toilets, yard & library
- Belonging to the same community
- Different days for PE
- The same structure to the day
- Similar learning environments (Learning Walls, Reading Areas)
What would you say to the new children coming into Year 1 about what to expect?
Your teacher will record your ideas to send down to Reception to help them prepare for September.
