Dear Families,
Welcome to First Grade! Please use any resources on this website as you see fit. Currently, there is a hodge-podge of materials from the past two years of remote learning, that I am leaving up in the event that anyone would like to use them at any point, if your child is home sick, or you're on vacation, or if you'd just like to check out some learning videos/materials, etc. (*It is orgarnized via the subject tabs up top.)
The best way to stay up to date on your child's learning is to check you email with weekly updates, and to check your child's home/school folder daily. :)
I am looking forward to beginning the school year in just a couple of days!
Warmly,
Laura Biffar
