First Grade

In first grade, learners grow as readers, writers, and problem-solvers.

Learners begin reading with greater independence, deepen number sense, and explore patterns in the world around them. Hands-on learning builds communication, critical thinking, and collaboration skills across all subject areas.

Below you’ll find documents that outline the key units taught throughout the school year in first grade. These overviews provide a high-level snapshot of the instructional sequence for each grade level. Each unit, module, or topic is linked to a more detailed unit plan, which includes the standards, essential content, and instructional focus. While the site is accessible to all stakeholders, some linked resources, such as assessments or copyrighted instructional materials, may only be accessible to staff.
