Howdy! 

There are many exciting things to learn in first grade. First graders learn to read! We begin with syllables, sounds and word parts and before you know it they are reading words, signs, and entire books!

I encourage you to browse through this site and find out about what goes on in our first grade world.  One of the most exciting things going on in first grade is learning to read and understand what an author is trying to communicate to the reader. So, you will be invited to view other websites that are relevant to reading.  It is also important to know our math facts well so that we can be ready to tackle more intricate math problems. So, you will be directed to a Math site that will help you sharpen up on those facts.  You will be given a glimpse into what we are studying and thinking about in first grade.   I will give you a little information about me as well.   So, come on in, and surf around and find out more about the real world of first grade.
