This subject covers foundational skills in reading, writing, and language for first graders, aligning with Common Core standards.
The more words you know, the easier it is to read, write, and talk about everything! In first grade, you’ll learn new words by listening, reading, and asking questions.
Sometimes you can figure out what a new word means by looking at the other words in the sentence.
Learning words that mean the same (synonyms) or the opposite (antonyms) helps you understand more and use new words in your writing.
Knowing more words helps you talk to friends, ask questions, and understand instructions everywhere you go.
Learning that 'tiny' means the same as 'small'.
Figuring out that 'sad' is the opposite of 'happy'.
A bigger vocabulary helps you express yourself and understand others.
