Grade 1 Elementary School Courses Outline
The first grade is the first school year in Elementary school after Kindergarten. Children who are usually 6 to 7 years old are enrolled for this grade.
During their time in the first grade, children are taught the basic fundamentals of Math. Basic geometry along with graphing may also be introduced. Additionally, first graders are taught basic reading skills with the focus on reading and writing simple statements. Of course, with the changes brought about by the Common Core Standards, children entering the first grade are now expected to read and understand stories covering a wide range of lengths and difficulty.
Students are also introduced to the basics of Social Studies, Geography and Science. The subject of Science is taught to them in an interactive manner that enables free questioning and comprehensive understanding of the world around them.

Children with special needs tend to require more personalized attention. Having to study in a classroom full of children and cope with the pace that is set for the entire class can sometimes be overwhelming for them. In such cases, children sometimes tend to shut down, which in turn hampers their learning process.
This can have detrimental effects on a child’s overall educational development, especially given the formative nature of elementary school learning. To help such children overcome their problems, Forest Trail Academy has implemented a Prescriptive/Adaptive learning Program. This program focuses on a child’s weaknesses and helps them overcome challenges.
This self-paced learning system is designed to improve student achievement and combines modern technology with state academic standards to deliver high quality education according to the standards set by the No Child Left Behind Act. With a view to preparing children for academic challenges, this system is ideal for at-risk or learning-disabled children.
