The most important and hardest skill to teach first graders is ORGANIZATION!! This is what I hope to achieve with these folder. Students will use the folders as Homework Folders. This will help students keep their work neat and organized in their backpacks. This will also help to keep them organized at home. These folders will also be used in reading centers. Students will be assigned a worksheet that corresponds with a book that they have read. Again this will help keep their work organized. Student will also use these folders in their math centers. By color coding the folders in the students learning centers this will further help reinforce how to keep their work organized. When students have completed their work, it will go in the folder. Due to drastic budget cuts we do not have much paper or ink in the building. This paper and ink will be used for copying homework, center work, permission slips, progress reports and much more. This will help students to do the work that is expected for first graders. Center work and homework are extension of lessons that students learn throughout the week. The copying of progress reports will keep parents/guardians informed as to how their child is growing academically as well as struggling.
