Welcome to Mrs. Downey's First Grade
We are going to have a wonderful year in first grade. I look forward to all our great activities for the year! I believe that every child is an active part of my classroom and every child has a gift that they can share with everyone. It is my philosophy that you need to teach the whole child and find out how to help each child academically, socially and emotionally. Contact me at colleen.downey@hanovertwpschools.org.

Read, Read, Read!!!!
Reading is so important in First Grade. Please read at home with your child. Setting aside a few minutes a night is all you need to do to encourage reading at home. Please remember to send in your reading incentive list of the books that they have read. They will get a sticker on their incentive chart for every sheet they complete.
