Spotlight on 1st Grade

College and Career

First graders explored career options by dressing up and reading about many different occupations. Later, they wrote about what they want to be when they grow up. Class of 2036 is looking bright!

Wayfinder

In 1st grade, students are learning the importance of knowing when to ask for help. We made paper airplanes! The first one was completely independent, while the second could be done while asking a peer for help! This skill helps them become independent learners while also benefiting from the knowledge and support of their teachers and classmates.

Teachers are guiding students to recognize what they can do on their own and when they might need assistance. By fostering self-awareness, setting clear expectations, and offering choices, we help them build confidence in their learning journey.

You can support this at home by encouraging your child to express when they need help and celebrating their efforts to solve problems independently!

PLC - Did you know?

The staff at Mountain View Elementary participate in weekly Professional Learning Communities! In a PLC, teachers are not working in isolation. They have a network of colleagues to turn to for support, advice, and fresh ideas. This collaborative environment leads to a more dynamic and responsive teaching approach, benefiting students in countless ways.
