S1

Welcome to Mrs Gess's S1 page.

It's an exciting time - moving from Primary School to the High School. You will learn lots of new skills and have a chance to read a wide range of texts. Remember all those skills you learned at Primary though - you'll still need them!


 * Hints for Parents:**

First year pupils always have regular spelling homework. This consists of eight words to be written out three times each plus a sentence for each of the words.
 * Homework**

Regular reading will help your child in all areas of their education, but especially English. Sometimes, when children get up to High School, they can be reluctant to read. If you are concerned about your child's reading please do not hesitate to contact me. If your child struggles with their reading and you want to provide more support at home, click for more information.
