2. The KS1 SATs consist of:
Arithmetic
Reasoning
Reading 1
Reading 2
Spelling
Grammar

3. The Maths Papers
Will ask children a range of questions but they are not able to use any resources to help them.
We are going to be working hard on encouraging children to use jottings.

6. The Reading Papers
Involve reading a section of text and then answering a range of questions.
Some questions are literal while other will involve inference skills.

9. The SPAG Papers
We are now teaching ‘spelling’ as a separate lesson and the children will receive more spelling homework.
Grammar is built into our literacy lessons.

12. WHEN?
The KS1 SATs have to happen during May.
We are planning to do them in the week commencing the 16th of May.
SOCIAL MEDIA

13. SOCIAL MEDIA
Because the SATs can be taken at any point during May it is very important that the content of the tests must not be discussed on social media.
