Greetings to our First Grade Friends! Here are some expectations for First Grade.

Your child should be able to read high frequency words, segment and blend words, read with fluency and write simple stories. They should be able to write five or more sentences that relate to a topic of theme. Adding/subtracting and understanding numbers up to 99, tell time to the hour ad half-hour, recognize coins and their values, simple fractions, and measuring, are all concepts we will learn in our Houghton Mifflin Math. In Houghton Mifflin Science we will analyze, predict, infer, compare, contrast, and observe many different science concepts.

Our Reading, Math, and Science are all from Houghton Mifflin. If you would like more details please visit, www.eduplace.com

First Grade follows the Response to Intervention framework. Teachers are able to meet the needs of all learners by utilizing small group instruction based on DIBELS data.

We encourage students to work to their fullest potential and become life-long learners.
