Welcome to Our First Grade Page! Here you can find a quick summary of what your child is learning in my classroom. Enjoy!
Language Arts:
Spelling: Your child will be bringing home spelling lists every Monday and will have a test on those words that Friday. The spelling words are all sight words that your child will read and write everyday. Since these words are so important your child will only move onto the next word when they are ready. Sometimes they will repeat one or two words or an entire list from week to week.
