Grade 1 children use language to talk, ask questions and think about experiences, stories, and new ideas. They use words, pictures, and their own experiences to understand ideas, information, and books. They share their ideas with others in different ways such as drawing, writing, telling stories, singing and role-playing. In Grade 1, children listen actively to stories, songs and poems and learn to express personal connections to what they have seen and heard working towards independence.
