Welcome to
first and second grade at Cascade Canyon! As a class, we
will explore Reading, Writing, Mathematics and Social Studies. We will build a loving and supportive
community that challenges each of us to be curious, to take risks and
ultimately to stretch ourselves as learners. In first and second grades, children build upon the academic and social-emotional foundation they have developed in Kindergarten. We will deepen our love of reading and ability to read independently and find wonder in the world of books. We will continue to develop pride in being authors with our new abilities to extend and revise our writing and to adapt our writing for audience and purpose. And we will continue our active exploration in math, through manipulative investigation, posing questions and solving problems, and understanding and applying algorithms. Making good choices, taking responsibility for our words and actions, and working well with others continue to be focus areas in first and second grades.
A detailed description of our curriculum follows.
