Welcome to Grade One FI

Welcome to Grade One!
I hope every one had an amazing summer! Hard to believe we are back in school already!

I hope every one received the note that I sent home and have followed this blog for classroom updates!

For the month of September, we will be learning our classroom routines and expectations.

Mathematics
We will be starting off with our first unit in Math very soon. We will be starting with Patterning and Algebra, focusing on patterning.

French Language
The focus will be on oral vocabulary for the first few weeks. Please encourage your child to speak French in the classroom with the words that they already know. This will help them when they begin to write in their journals and when we dive deeper into the writing forms because they will have practiced the vocabulary that they will need to now write.
Students will start bringing home books for our home reading program in the next couple of weeks once we review our reading strategies and assess for reading levels.

Science
Soon, we will begin our first Science unit, Needs and Characteristics of Living Things. We will be investigating, learning, and comparing various living things and what they need to survive.

I will continue to post on the blog each week with information on what we are learning in various subject areas.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
Thank you for the continued support of your child's education.
Mme K. Forbes
