Morning Work First Grade Math, Phonics, Language Arts, Writing contains weeks 1-30 of my 30 week morning work/homework series. I designed my Morning Work series to use in my first grade classroom based on the skills in the language arts and math curriculum for the year. I designed the Morning Work First Grade series to be made into a booklet that the children will assemble to work in at the beginning of the week and continue to work in throughout the week, or you can print out individual sheets for each day.
