First grade is an exciting age where students are making tremendous leaps in their academic skills! My 20 students each have their own individual interests, backgrounds, abilities, skills, and goals. Some students are learning foundational first-grade skills like: constructing, deconstructing, and performing operations using numbers within 20; as well as fluently reading and comprehending passages of text from a variety of genres. Alternatively, some students are developing their letter and number identification skills, building the foundation for reading, writing, and performing math. All of this creates a wonderful mix of students who all strive for excellence and meeting high expectations.
