Today I am writing about 1st grade. I could hardly wait to start reading. My First Grade reading books were, Dick Jane, and Sally by Scott, Foresman and Company. I loved the characters in the book!
I especially loved Baby Sally and Puff the little Kitten. I
thought they were both so cute. I also thought Tim the Teddy Bear was very funny.
I was in a combination first and second grade classroom. There were about 10 first graders and about 15 second graders. My teacher would alternate teaching between the two classes. While one class would work at their desk with seat work, she would be instructing the other class.
I could hardly wait to start reading!There were little brown wooden chairs placed in a circle at the back of the room and my teacher would call all the first graders over. We had to sit on the chairs with our feet flat on the floor and our hands on our lap.
First we would go over the vocabulary(bowcabulary) words. She had a pocket chart with the long words cards and a pointer stick to point to each word as we read them. Finally we would get our books! We would practice reading our books aloud, each having a turn, around the circle of chairs.
It's fun to remember!
