April 28 update:
I hope you are loving the new choice boards I sending out. The whole first grade team is working very hard to create review materials for your child each week.
I LOVE seeing your children at our weekly class meetings. Don't forget, our class meeting are every Thursday at 10:30am.
There are also many, many resources and folders in the documents and files section, as well as helpful links. You will find math games, journal ideas, and websites where you can print worksheets. There are links and documents for reading, math, social studies, and STEM. As always, please let me know if you have any questions.
Also, don't forget to check out our specialists webpages! Art, STEAM, Library, PE, and music are excellent resources during this time:)

It has great ideas for scheduling home learning time, and links to many fantastic resources to support your child as they review and enrich what they have already learned.
My name is Kathy Tomblin. I am so excited for this school year! I have been teaching in Prince William County for 15 years. This is my fourth year teaching first grade at Gravely Elementary School.
I graduated from Indiana University of Pennsylvania with my masters degree in elementary education in 2005. I love working with children and helping them achieve success!
When I am not at school, I enjoy spending time with my husband and two daughters, Molly and Madison. Molly is 4 1/2 years old and Madison is 2 years old. We love going to the beach and playing with our Great Dane, Bettis.
