First Grade Standard Skill Lists

These standard skill lists are a tool for teachers to inform their planning as well as assess each student. Some teachers use them as a check-off list when the child completes each skill, as well as a guide for what skills the students should have mastered by the end of first grade. As a home educator, these skill lists are a great way to be sure my student reaches the goals I have planned for the academic year. Using these lists can keep teachers confident in planning and assessment!
