Repaso de verano de primer grado: plan de estudios Montessori completo | ELA, matemáticas, ciencias

WELCOME SHOOTING STARS! 💫

Shooting Star Academy’s full curriculum First Grade class gives learners a complete classroom experience with writing, STEM science, storytime, beginning linguistics in Spanish, intermediate English Language Arts, and Montessori math. Our teachers work hard to ensure each student’s needs are met, and these courses are designed so that a learner can come and go each week as needed. We do not build upon previous content, so it isn’t necessary to attend every week consecutively.

Each lesson begins with calendar time, charting the weather, sharing time, and warm-up songs. 

English days consist of Montessori handwriting with word building mats, Montessori Grammar symbols, Animal Alphabet Phonics, beginning Spanish concepts (like “what day of the week is it?”, or “what is the most common weather type in class?”), and/or story time. 

Science days incorporate STEM projects or experimental worksheets that will be based on our monthly themes. Projects will be completed every week, and we will work on matching, identifying, and classifying the other weeks. 

Math days use a variety of techniques between Montessori and Reggio Emilia. This age group will have topics that range from counting to 1000-10,000 all the way to skip counting. We will use several manipulatives over the course of the year which will be posted as necessary over the course of the year. 

All manipulatives will be provided weekly to the student and parents in the classroom tab by the assigned teacher the Sunday before scheduled classes to give families time to prepare.

The monthly themes are:

June - Beach Vacation/In the Ocean
July - Travel the World/Climate Types
August - Dinosaurs/Geology
