We have a 5 block Literacy Plan throughout the district. Your child will receive equal time of writing, word work, self-selected reading and guided reading. They will also listen to good literature. This plan gives the teacher time to work on your child's individual reading level to increase your child's fluency and expression when reading. Please watch for your child's reading books to come home.

Your child will learn many high-frequency words. They will also learn a word family chunk each week to study. This will make your child a well-rounded speller! Please study your words the whole week.

Math

By the end of 2nd grade, your child will have been taught to add and subtract with 1 and 2 digits. The students will learn to tell time to the hour, half-hour, and quarter to and quarter past the hour. They will learn about money and calendars. Our new math series is Investigations. This series is designed to engage students in making sense of mathematical ideas. There are six major goals which guide the development of the Investigations in Number, Data, and Space curriculum.
