The 1st Grade Reading Comprehension: Quarter 2 is here! Teaching foundational reading comprehension skills at an early age is a vital part of overall reading success throughout a child’s school career. Therefore, I’ve been working hard to create a First Grade Reading Comprehension Curriculum to help maximize reading understanding and minimize the teacher’s workload!

Throughout the curriculum, students will be exposed a variety of reading comprehension strategies through non-fiction and fiction texts.  Building vocabulary will hold a strong focus throughout the curriculum, helping students gain a deeper understanding of what they are reading.  Furthermore, students will learn to make connections between what they are reading and what they already know, while thinking deeply about what they have read.

She writes into the host of a popular kids show, Everett’s Place, for advice and comfort. Everett St. James, the show’s host, is drawn to the letters he’s receiving, both honest and vulnerable. He and Teddy, aka “Theodora“, write each other back and forth forming an unlikely relationship while never having met….until one day they do and life changes for them both.
