Mrs. Julienne Kirin - 1st Grade

Hello! I’m Julie Kirin, a First Grade teacher. This will be my fourth year at Merryhill, but I have more than 25 years of teaching experience in elementary school classrooms. More than half of it is in First Grade.

I love teaching First Grade. It’s actually my favorite grade. I love watching young minds blossom and become eager, curious, successful students. I am committed to helping my students understand the importance of education and building a strong foundation that supports a lifelong love of learning.

My husband and I  moved to Las Vegas from Nashville, but I was born and raised in Pittsburgh. So, of course, I’m a huge Steelers fan – six Super Bowl victories and counting! I kinda, sorta root for the Knights only because Marc-Andre Fleury won two Stanley Cups with my beloved Penguins. Will I ever become a Raiders fan? Not in a million years.

When I’m not keeping track of my husband, Russ, and our three kitties, Rocky, Spunky and Twinkle, I love to bake, workout and read mystery novels. I enjoy   exploring Las Vegas and discovering everything our new hometown has to offer.

Classroom Notes

Supply List First Grade 2022-2023

 A Few Notes and Reminders

 

The calendar stays in the Take Home Folder. It will show your child’s daily behavior.

 

The students now have the login information with their userid and password for First in Math. I have placed it inside the back cover of their Take Home Folder. It needs to stay there so that the children have it for home and school.

 

First in Math is required to be done at home 2-3 times a week for 10 minutes a session. The students will login click on Early(K2), click on the red dumb bell, whole numbers, the plus sign, and start with 1. The students will go from 1-12 in order. When all addition is complete, they will begin on subtraction and go from 1-12 again. When this is complete, I will assign the next goal.

 

The students will also be doing practice at school a few days a wee

 

Folders need to come to school daily.
