1 Welcome Parents! Can you find your child’s self-portrait hanging by the windows? Write your name and picture # of the child you think is yours on the yellow slip. Drop the yellow slip of paper in the blue basket. The true identities will be displayed at the end of the presentation! Your child wrote a welcome note to you. Use a pencil from their pencil box to write back.

2 Back to School Night 2015-2016 Welcome Parents! First Grade, Room 24 Mrs. Carroll

3 A Little About Me…

4 A Day in the Life… Morning routine Fundations Daily 5, Making Meaning Lunch/Recess Calendar Special(s) Math Writing Workshop Social Studies/Science Pack up/snack

5 Language Arts Philosophy: Balanced Literacy

6 Language Arts Reading Components: Making Meaning Shared Reading Modeled Reading Guided Reading Independent Reading Talk about reading Write about reading Raz-Kids

7 Language Arts Writing Components: Being a Writer Mentor Texts Modeled Writing Guided Writing Independent Writing Sharing and partner work

8 What is Wilson Fundations? The foundation for reading and spelling Provides a structured, sequential, and cumulative phonics/spelling program using multisensory teaching techniques

9 What is Wilson Fundations? Part of the balanced literacy instruction, delivered to all students for 30 minutes per day Emphasizes phonemic awareness, phonics-word study, high frequency word study, fluency, vocabulary, handwriting and spelling

10 Program Highlights: letter formation and print knowledge blend and segment up to 5 sounds for example: c a t identify the elements of word structure: blends, digraphs, short and long vowels, basewords, suffixes, syllables types (closed and vowel- consonant-e syllables)

11 Program Highlights read, spell and write “trick” and high frequency words For example: to, too, two stories (fiction and nonfiction) that provide instruction for fluency, expression and understanding beginning compositional skills: capitalization, punctuation and proofreading procedures

12 Home Support You are the “coach!” Please set time to read Fundations letters that come home and do the homework activities from the Home Support Pack. Please support classroom instruction by using the verbal step-by-step guidelines for proper letter formation.

13 Home Support Proper pencil grip and correct letter and number formation will lessen fatigue in the hands and builds stamina for writing neatly. *Please note there are periodic unit assessments. There will be no weekly spelling tests.

14 Daily 5 A framework for structuring literacy time so students develop lifelong habits of reading, writing, and working independently.

16 Daily 5 It is called The Daily Five because there are five literacy components for children to choose from when they go off to work. These components are: Read to Self Read to Someone Listen to Reading Work on Writing Working with Words

17 Math Standards Operations and Algebraic Thinking - Represent and solve problems involving addition and subtraction. - Understand and apply properties of operations and the relationship between addition and subtraction. - Add and subtract within 20. - Work with addition and subtraction equations. Number and Operations in Base Ten - Extend the counting sequence. - Understand place value. - Use place value understanding and properties of operations to add and subtract. Measurement and Data - Measure lengths indirectly and by iterating length units. - Tell and write time. - Represent and interpret data. Geometry - Reason with shapes and their attributes.

20 GO Math Exploration of concepts before learning the steps to solve problems Deep level of understanding Hands-on activities Critical thinking and problem solving opportunities Connections to real-life Online opportunities for reteach, enrichment, and/or practice

21 Science Inquiry-based instruction Hands on experiments Two Units Air and Weather Solids and Liquids

22 Social Studies People and Places published by Macmillan/McGraw-Hill Holidays

23 Report Cards Distributed December, April, June Grading A - Achieved P - Partially achieved D - Developing I - Improvement needed N - Not Assessed at the time

24 Homework Missed Homework Due to Personal Reasons School policy states that if a child misses school for personal reasons, missed homework will be given to the child the day he/she returns to school. The number of days absent is the number of days your child has to complete the homework.
