  Welcome
to our first grade website! We are so excited that you have chosen to visit our classroom! This website is designed so that
we can share what's happening in our classroom with our family and friends. As you explore our site, you can find our
daily schedule, read about special events and learning that is taking place, view cool projects, read our stories, meet our
teacher, and even see us in action in our classroom. We hope that by visiting our classroom website, you will get a better
idea of what we do each day. Enjoy your journey!
First
grade has a lot of new things to get used to: Routines, new skills and ideas, and how can we forget, HOMEWORK!
With that said, I hope your child’s adjustment to this new year has been a smooth one. If there is anything I
can do to make it easier, or just less painful, please let me know. I hope we can work together throughout
the year to make this a spectacular and successful year for your first grader! In Room 1E, we believe in the Pillars
of Character: Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring,
and Citizenship. We have discussed what each pillar means, how we can show them, and used them to help us write
our Classroom Promise. Please discuss these important traits with your child, and talk about what he/she
does to be a person of good character.
