🍏 Welcome to First Grade! 🍎

Welcome to Mrs. Downey's First Grade

We are going to have a wonderful year in first grade. I am looking forward to all our great activities for the year! I believe that every child is an active part of my classroom. All my students have a gift that they can share with everyone. It is my philosophy that you need to teach the whole child--academically, socially and emotionally. My goal is for everyone to succeed in first grade!!

Homework

Homework will be given Monday through Thursday nights. We will have usually have 2 assignments per night--a math assignment and a Language Arts assignment. The language arts assignment may be a spelling, memory word or phonics assignment. We will also have a fluency folder that goes home on Monday nights for the week. It will be returned on Friday. Please have your child read for 15-20 every night so they can build their fluency.
