Mr. Shepherd
1st Grade
Welcome!
We are having a wonderful year in 1st grade. Here is a description of what our
day looks like. The children begin each day with Morning Meeting. We greet
and build our community of learners at this time. SWR is our spelling, writing,
reading program, where the children work with writing letters, sounds, word
families and sight words daily. Writing Workshop is a time the children are
exposed to what good writers do and engage in the writing process on a
developmental level. Read Alouds are the time we share wonderful literature and
work on comprehension strategies. Literacy time is when the kids read both
independently and in guided groups. They work with words and go to
thematically-based centers. Math is done using the Everyday Math program. You
will see the parent connection with our Everyday Math Homelinks. Social Studies
and Science themes are incorporated throughout the day and activities are taught
at the end of the day. The children eat snack every morning. Please be sure to
send a healthy snack daily!
