1. How are birthdays celebrated?
If a child would like to bring a treat to class to celebrate his/her birthday, s/he are always welcome. This is optional and is left to the parents' discretion.
2. Is my child assigned a snack week?
In first grade students are responsible for bringing in an individual snack. We do not bring snacks to share.
3. Will my child go outside to play if there is inclement weather?
First graders go outside in all weather conditions BUT rain! Please make sure your child is prepared with winter gear when the weather requires this. We have very limited borrow gear.
4. Is there a nap time in first grade?
No! We are so busy with all of our learning activities there is no time to rest.
5. How much homework will my first grader have?
Your child can expect to have homework Monday-Thursday. If your child is having trouble completing this, feel free to send it into your child's teacher for help.
