Grade 1

First grade brings major changes for children.  It can be the first all day school experience for many children.  At Glacier Hills we want to make the transition from Kindergarten to First Grade as easy as possible.

We want all first graders to feel safe, accepted, and comfortable in this new situation.  One way we will do this is by meeting all our children at the end of the summer for some reading and writing activities.  They become familiar with the teacher and the classroom.  The pre-school Open House also makes the start of First Grade easier.  The children get to find and explore their classroom making the first day a little less scary.


Our major academic goal is reading.  We want to provide a strong start to this important subject.  We will encourage many home activities to support what is happening at school.
