St. Anthony
Greetings,
First Grade is a wonderful learning experience.  The recognition of progress and ability is especially delightful for the students.  In First Grade, students enjoy Guided Reading circles, and the excitement of independent reading progress.  The math curriculum provides on-going practice of various concepts with the use of student journals, math games, and small group activities.  I appreciate how each child contributes unique strengths, interests, and creativity to the class community.       ~Ms. Holmgren
