Parents, I am looking forward to seeing all of you at our 1st grade performance of Seussical!
Literacy
- Students are making amazing progress in Reading. More than half of the class is already proficient for first grade! Keep reading every night and our progress will continue to SOAR!
- Students are becoming familiar with the writing process. All students have completed at least one "published" work which has gone through the draft, edit, and revise phases.
Math
- Students have been continuing to learn different ways to add and subtract. They are now working on time at the hour, half, and quarter hours.
- Mountain Math has really begun to pay off as students are demonstrating proficiency in many higher level math skills, such as fractions, and even missing digit equations.
Social Studies/Science
- Students have been learning Presidents Washington and Lincoln in honor of Presidents' Day.
- Students have been learning about the different properties of matter - solids, liquids and gases.
