FAQ

Which conjunctions are typically introduced in 1st grade?

1st graders focus on coordinating conjunctions and, but, or, so, and the subordinating conjunction because — the five most commonly used in early writing.

How are conjunctions taught across the 1st grade year?

Conjunctions are usually introduced one at a time with their specific meaning (addition, contrast, choice, result, reason) before students practice choosing among multiple options.

Does the Common Core address conjunctions in 1st grade?

Yes — CCSS L.1.1g specifically requires students to use frequently occurring conjunctions, making this a directly standards-aligned grammar skill.
