Welcome back!!! We hope you all had a wonderful summer. We are so excited to start and can not wait to meet our new 1st graders!!! Here is what we will be doing for this month!!
In ELA, we will be starting Unit 1. In this Unit the students will be going over short vowels, consonants, nouns, verbs, adjectives and sentence structure. The students will be given a Spelling and Sight word list for each unit. These lists can be found in their Study Book. Each week there will be a new list (goes by weeks) for them to go over. They will be tested on the Spelling words each week. The study book will be sent home daily. This book will have everything they will need to know. We will add things in it, so please check it daily.
In Math, we will review what the students learned in Kindergarten. Then we will start with Chapter 1 in the math book. This chapter is going over simple addition. With each new chapter, a letter will go home explaing what they will be doing and what can be done at home. The flashcards that your child brings in will be used on a weekly basis to help with their math facts. There will also be addition/subtraction sheets in their study book so they can practice their facts daily.
In Religion, we will review and practice the prayers that we use daily. We are also starting a new Religion series. The series is called Spirt of Truth. We will start with Unit 1, Who is God? The Trinity.
Now let's have some fun in 1st grade!!!!
