About This Year

First grade is a large foundational year in reading and math. We will learn multiple reading strategies, phonics, sight words, and spelling patterns. We will write a few pieces like how-to's, letter writing, informational research project and narravtive writing.  In math, we will learn-- partner and number patterns through 10, addition & subtraction, place value, comparisons & data, telling time on an analog and digital clock, and identifying shapes. One of our main goals this year is how to be a true SHS TIGER through our SLEs' and social emotional practice.  I look forward to learning with your students!
