Welcome to Mrs. Inglish's Far Out First Grade Class! First Grade is a year of shift in learning. In Kindergarten, your child was learning to read. In First Grade, they will continue to learn to read, but they will begin to read to learn! I am so excited to be making this new jump with your children, as this will be my first year of first grade as well.
Your child will be learning A LOT this school year! Check out the Common Core State standards. These are the things we will be learning this year. You play a vital role in your child's education. Please make sure you talk to your child every day about what he/she learned in school, and discuss and practice those things at home. Read daily with your child. Talk to your child and share experiences. The best gift you can give to your child is your time. You will be amazed by the end of the year at how much your child has grown!
Thank you to all of the parents who joined us at Back to School Night! I hope the information we shared was helpful. For those parents who were unable to attend, please read through the powerpoint slides from our presentation. A lot of information was shared and we are sending home some additional information in the homework folder on Tuesday, including information about how to log in to the different curriculum websites. Please check your child's homework folder!
Important reminders:
Attendance: Please try to avoid unnecessary absences. Each missed day of school leads to loss of opportunity to learn. If your child is absent, please send a note or call the school office to let us know the reason for the absence. Please make sure your child is on time every day. We begin promptly each day at 8:00AM.
