First Grade
First graders become independent readers and writers. By incorporating both phonics and whole language concepts, children become confident in their ability to read and to write creatively. Their discoveries are shared with the class in a variety of ways, including research and oral reports, stories, projects, and class dramatizations.
As students explore math, they develop an awareness of how math is part of everyday life. Students use manipulatives and tools, including calculators, to solve problems. Critical thinking skills are employed as they make hypotheses and test predictions; basic skills are reinforced using games and flashcards.
Science and Social Studies are introduced through the reading program and complemented by the integration of geography and scientific resource books. Students learn to make observations and to record data in an organized and meaningful way, then present their findings in class reports.
