Reading has never felt so good! 📚Our 1st graders have learned how to dive into a good book this year. Using our whisper phones help us hear our expression and fluency. Guided reading groups help us work on all of our comprehension skills. #firstgraderocks #idepride 🦁

In first grade we have continued to learn about different life cycles. This week is the monarch butterfly 🦋. Students love using their informational journal and nonfiction text to draw diagrams, stages of the life cycle and facts! #butterflies #lifecycles #firstgrade

“H” is for Hatching Day in first grade! Our students eagerly added the 21st day on our Chick Countdown calendar! We also looked and listened to our new baby chicks inside the incubator & brooder box. As one student put it, “This is just simply a MIRACLE!” It really really is!🐣👍🏻
