We've Had An Exciting Few Weeks in First Grade!

The students have been busy here in First Grade!  They are quickly settling in to our daily routines and I am so proud of all of them!


Over the last few weeks, the students were hard at work on their “Look Whooo’s In First Grade” Books.  They did a great job on all 20 pages of their books!  It was wonderful to show them off at our Open House.  I was so pleased to see so many of you at our Open House and I know it meant a lot to the students to be able to show you all of the things they have accomplished already this year!

Exploring Our Classroom Library!

The students have been having so much fun exploring our classroom library and can't wait to pick out their "Dessert Books" for their Book Bins.  Ask your child to tell you their favorite bin that they have explored so far!

Introducing Our Book Bins!

Today was a very important day in First Grade! Each student pledged to take good care of the books in our classroom and were given their Book Bins for the first time.  The students had a wonderful time reading the books that were selected for them.  Ask your child to tell you all about reading in First Grade!
