Phonics & Reading: We use Wit and Wisdom, Fundations, and UFLI to build strong early literacy skills. Students will learn letter sounds, sight words, and how to become confident readers.
Math: We explore numbers, counting, shapes, patterns, and problem-solving through hands-on activities and games.
Writing: Students will learn to form letters, write words, and eventually create their own sentences and short stories.
Science & Social Studies: We explore topics like weather, animals, seasons, families, and community helpers.
Social-Emotional Learning (SEL): We practice kindness, sharing, self-regulation, and problem-solving through class discussions and activities.
We use ClassDojo for daily communication, photos, and important reminders. Be sure to check your messages and the class story regularly!
