How does online First Grade work?
First graders deserve a curriculum that can keep pace with their curiosity. With K12-powered online school, your child can explore new subjects and experience the joy of learning — all from the comfort of home.
An A+ curriculum
First graders expand their horizons with engaging courses taught by state-certified teachers.
Lessons cover the following foundational subjects:
Language Arts
A lifelong love of reading begins in Phonics 1. With a multisensory introduction to phonemes, sight words, decoding skills, and handwriting techniques, first graders begin digesting texts independently and expressing themselves in writing.
Math
First graders in Math 1 learn addition and subtraction facts through 10, time, shapes, and practical story problems. Your child’s blossoming love of learning stems from live virtual instruction, games, songs, and self-paced lessons.
Science
Junior scientists see the natural world brought to life in Science 1, exploring questions like: What is science? How do plants and animals adapt? What’s in the universe? What can sound and light teach us?
Social Studies
Kids explore the cultures and communities in their “great big world” in Social Studies 1. By digging into the ancient civilizations of Egypt, India, Greece, and China, they explore what society and citizenship mean today.
World Languages
Hola! Introducing Spanish K-2 — fun, early exposure to the Spanish language. Through stories, games, and activities, kids develop vocabulary related to: greetings, numbers, family, school, colors, body parts, food, animals, calendar, shapes, and hobbies.
Art & Music
Inspired by everything from Egyptian cave paintings to Greek architecture, kids in Art 1 learn to draw, paint, and sculpt in various styles.
Spotlight on Music waltzes kids through song, dance, production, and seasonal celebrations.

At K12, first grade looks different for everyone. That includes Micah, a talented artist who frequents the trampoline park after class, and Klara, a vocal maestro and budding science star.
