Second Grade

By second grade, most students have settled in and have begun to use the skills they learned in kindergarten and in first grade. They become more analytical in their thinking as they take on more complicated assignments. Second grade marks a year of transition as children learn to become self-directed, independent learners.

Students will get to explore various genres of literature while also learning foundational decoding and phonics skills. Second graders will also learn and demonstrate higher-level literacy skills such as comprehension of fiction and nonfiction texts and written expression.
Math

In second grade, students will work to strengthen their number sense with the use of manipulatives, problem solving and hands-on practice. Students will be exploring relationships between place value and addition and subtraction.
