ASKED QUESTION
Q. What do you learn in first grade?
A. You learn to read and a whole lot more!
In the area of
reading, we do a combination approach of phonics and whole
language (using lots of print and real literature). We learn
many grammar skills, including spelling. We also begin to
learn the mechanics of writing.
In math, we learn
adding, subtracting, measurement, geometry, fractions, and
problem solving.
In science and
social studies we cover several themes such as: nutrition,
dinosaurs, health & safety, our five senses, our country,
and the seasons - just to name a few.
First grade is
an exciting time of learning academics and social skills!
