Grade One Language Arts Outcomes

Students will be expected to respond critically to a range of texts, applying their understanding of language, form, and genre

Students will be expected to
recognize some basic types of texts (e.g., videos, poems, posters, letters, true and imaginary texts)
recognize some basic components of texts such as author, illustrator, and title
begin to ask questions of text
begin to develop an understanding and respect for diversity

Once again this is a natural occurance as you spend time communicating with your child. Be suretocover the different kids of texts and discuss the similarities and differences of each type. Point out the title, author, and illustrator on each book you share. Encourage your child to guess what books might be like before reading them based on the cover, the title, etc. Expose him to a variety of types of books. Proof of this learning can again take the form of journal entries of conversations as well as lists of materials divided into the different types mentioned.
