Dear First Grade Families, June 2025
Congratulations on your child becoming a First Grader! I am looking forward to meeting and working with your child for the 2025-2026 school year. Your First Grader will have a wonderful year working to build their reading and math skills. As a way to help your child prepare for First Grade, I have included information about their reading and math work for the summer. There is also a letter about the school supplies needed for next year.
Your First Grader will be doing a lot of reading and math work throughout the year. To help with their reading skills, there is a reading log sheet for each month of summer (June, July and August). For every book your child reads, or listens to a book being read to them, please color in a shape. There is also a S’more Reading activity sheet to make reading fun! To help with their math work, there is a math packet. Please complete the math packet before the start of the school year. All worksheets are on my website under the tab “Incoming First Graders.” Please print these out for your First Grader to complete.
Please make sure that your First Grader’s name is written on each page of the reading log and math packet. This will help to ensure that your First Grader will receive credit for all their work. The reading logs and math packets will be collected on the first day of school.
Additional Skills to review over the summer
Here is a list of skills that are important for your First Grader to know! Please have your child practice these skills over the summer.
Write first and last name using the appropriate uppercase and lowercase letters
How to tie shoes without help
Know address and phone number
Practice cutting with scissors
Practice using an appropriate amount of glue (stick and liquid)
Know how to open snack and lunch items independently
Please email me at gcellucci@sainteugeneschool.org with any questions or concerns about the summer work!
Have a wonderful summer!
From,
Miss Cellucci
