Welcome to 1st Grade!

This year we will be using technology in our classroom! We will be blogging our weekly journals on the computer.

Each student will develop his/her own blog for the purpose of preserving their year in 1st grade, as well as enhancing writing skills and becoming comfortable with the computer and with publishing their works.

You can be as creative as you like! You may include photos, upload your own artwork, or even a video! You will be given a new assignment each week to complete.

You will be graded on the current trimester's 20 point writing ruberic:


  • 3 or more logically sequenced and focused sentences (8 pts)

  • standard and inventive spelling (2 pts)

  • capitalization (2 pts)

  • punctuation (2 pts)

  • spacing (2 pts)

  • descriptive language (3 pts)

  • combined/extended sentences (1 pt)

HAVE FUN and see below for examples.

    This year I am in the first grade. In first grade we go to school for a long time. We eat lunch at school and have recess. My teacher lets us use the computer to write our stories. I like that. I hope I can learn a lot in first grade.

    This summer I went to the zoo. We saw a tall giraffe. We saw a huge hippo. It was hot but I liked the zoo!
    Now I'm in first grade. First grade is a lot of fun!
