Lincoln Park Zoo!

1st Grade couldn't wait until we visited the zoo!  We had been learning about mammals, birds, and reptiles.  At the zoo we were able to see all different types of animals.

Sight Words

Many parents have been wondering  - what can I practice with my child over the summer?  Here it is.....Sight words!  These words are very important to the reading process.  Mrs. Perkin's website has a list of all the words we have learned this year in 1st grade. (pre-primer, primer,and 1st grade words)  If you want to get a head start on 2nd grade - look at the 2nd grade Dolch words!
