First grade at Battle Creek is a very exciting and challenging year. We
focus on reading and math with environment intertwined throughout the
day.
We strongly believe in a partnership between the children, parents and
teachers. Parental support and involvement is encouraged and welcomed.
Homework is another area that is very important to budding new
learners.
We believe as a team that homework teaches responsibility,

reinforces taught concepts, and encourages teamwork between parent and
child.
A part of your child's homework is to read every night for 15-20 minutes.
Please sign your child's school planner every night, indicating how long your child read. Planners are a school-wide iniative for parent-school communication. First grade is challenging, rewarding and full of growth!
