First
Grade is an important year. Your
child will grow emotionally as well as
intellectually. He/she will
develop a sense of independence and
responsibility. It is our goal to
provide your child with a comfortable,
supportive environment where he/she is
given the opportunity to grow and learn.
As
a new First Grade parent, we know that
you have many concern about the grade
level and our expectations for your
child. We hope that the following
list will answer some of your questions.
 |
Your
child will receive an
"E", "S" or
"U" to indicate mastery
of
communication, mathematics and
social growth and development
objectives that are covered for
that grading period.

|
Please
read and sign your child's
Alimacani Planner
daily.
You may write all your notes in
the planner.
This is a great communication
tool.
|
|
|
Please
write in your child's planner or
send us a note whenever
there
is a change in how your child is
getting home.
Telephone calls are not
acceptable.
|
|
|
Please
put lunch or milk money in an
envelope labeled with your
child's name and pin # or in a
money holder. Have a
specific place
in your child's backpack
where you always put notes and
money.
This will make it easier for your
child to find.
|
|
|
Homework
is required Monday-Thursday and
should be returned on
Friday.
One of the most important things
that you can do for your child is
to
read to him/her every night and
have them read to
you!!!
This will encourage your child to
enjoy books and will
improve his/her reading
skills.
Please record the books your child
reads to you in their Reading Log. |
With great expectations
For a happy year,
The First Grade Teachers
Alimacani Elementary
