It is important that you know the expectations for your child in first grade.
Expectations have been made very clear to teachers through VT's Framework of
Standards, FNESU's Curriculum Mapping and the Common Core Standards that have
been adopted by most states in the U.S.A.
The following is just a sample list of my goals that will be monitored by me
and reported out to you at the end of this year in your child's report card:
Grade One SMART Goals
Determined by FNESU Curriculum/ Essential Maps
2011-2012:
By June 2012, 100% of Grade 1 Students will:
Literacy:
• Earn 90% or higher on Treasures Weekly Assessments; these assessment scores
may include reteach scores the first half of the year. (Note: I plan to add
short writing prompts and complement questions to weekly assessments.
Assessments will have an attainable 20 questions; Mastery would equal no more
than 2 wrong/ assessment).
• Meet or exceed the target scores for the following assessments:
1. Fountas & Pinnell (Comprehension, Reading Accuracy, Fluency) as an outcome
measure, to be reported as: above, at or below grade level;
2. DIBELS Oral Reading Fluency (40awpm goal).
• Meet or exceed the expectations for writing:
o Informational Report (requiring 3 sentences with relevant details);
o Personal Narrative Multi Page Book;
o Response to Literary Text, as outlined in Essential Maps.
Math:

counting on, inverse operations),” and
Write and solve fluently equations (facts) 0-20, with 90% accuracy as assessed
by Rocket Math and/or Bridges Interview assessment.
• Identify orally and/or in writing, all whole numbers to 200, with (no less
than 5 errors) as assessed by teacher created materials or Bridges.
