We are very busy in 1st grade !! We have begun our flex reading groups and the students were placed where their needs can be met to be a successful reader. We have been doing a lot of writing on different topics. The students are working on penmanship, punctuation, staying on topic and adding details. We are also on our 3rd year of Common Core Math. Students are being taught to think about their answers and how they solve different problems. In science we will be talking a lot this year about plant and animal life cycles, weather and matter. During social studies we will learn about our community , maps and globes, heritage and wants and needs. Homework is a very important piece in your child's learning. They should be reading 20 min per night and working on spelling. Homework is given out on Friday and is due the following Friday. We also have the opportunity to enjoy a music lesson, PE 101, art vistas, cornerstone , computer lab and library time. We go on a few field trips each year. All 1st grade students will perform a 1st grade opera at the end of the year. First Grade is a very exciting year !
