1st Grade

First grade is a crucial period for kids’ learning as they become more independent and mature learners. Our students progress from practicing basic skills to mastering them and moving on to further developing more complex skills. While class routines and rhythms are consistent, no two days are alike. The pace of the day moves quickly, with many venue changes and activities augmented with technology. Students focus on reading, writing, and math in the morning when they are fresh and energized.

The Book: Too Many Pears

"Too Many Pears" is a children's picture book written and illustrated by Jackie French and Bruce Whatley. The story is about a young kangaroo named Pamela who loves pears. She eats too many pears from her father's orchard, causing her to become stuck in a tree!

Her family and friends try to figure out how to get her down, but nothing seems to work. In the end, they come up with a creative solution involving a tractor, a rope, and a slide.

The story is a fun and lighthearted way to teach children about the consequences of overindulgence and the importance of teamwork and problem-solving. And who can resist a cute kangaroo-like Pamela? 🐨💕

Reading 1: Joel 2:12-18

Even now, says the LORD,
return to me with your whole heart,
with fasting, and weeping, and mourning;
Rend your hearts, not your garments,
and return to the LORD, your God.
For gracious and merciful is he,
slow to anger, rich in kindness,
and relenting in punishment.
Perhaps he will again relent
and leave behind him a blessing,
Offerings and libations
for the LORD, your God.

Blow the trumpet in Zion!
proclaim a fast,
call an assembly;
Gather the people,
notify the congregation;
Assemble the elders,
gather the children
and the infants at the breast;
Let the bridegroom quit his room
and the bride her chamber.
Between the porch and the altar
let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep,
And say, "Spare, O LORD, your people,
and make not your heritage a reproach,
with the nations ruling over them!
Why should they say among the peoples,
'Where is their God?'"

Then the LORD was stirred to concern for his land
and took pity on his people.
