Grade 1 Reading

St. Monica School

Miss Borrelli, Mrs. Cackett, Mrs. Miller, Mrs. Vaage

The four grade 1 teachers have collaborated in relational work as part of the "Professional Learning School" designation for St. Monica/St. Mary Schools for 2002 - 2003. Following is part of their vision about how grade one children learn to read. They share a general time-line of what happens at particular times of the year, strategies for parents, resource lists, a glossary of literacy terms, and assessment tools used.
