Supplies
Schedule
Language Arts runs on a five day cylcle. Look in the Home School Binder for the Unified Arts "Day" and the Language Arts "Day" as they do not align.
For example:
Day 1 - New story, words, phonics, skills, etc. are introduced
Day 2 - skills practiced
Day 3 - skills practiced
Day 4 - skills practiced
Day 5 - Weekly Test
First graders eat lunch from 10:40 - 11:20
*Since lunch is early in the day, students will have an afternoon snack time.
*Students can bring a light/healthy snack to eat in the afternoon. This snack should be as healthy as possible that will still be fresh by end of day!
*Water bottles with lids are permitted. Please DO NOT send juice boxes, gatorade, or other colored / sticky drinks (These drinks are allowed for lunch, just not in the classroom.)
