Second Grade Curriculum Standards Based Learning: Language Arts, Reading & Math

****ANNOUNCEMENT****
For the 2024/2025 Class:
We will take the week of Christmas off
**OPEN ENROLLMENT** Can join anytime!

Hello Wonderful Parents! 
My First Grade Curriculum Class was such a hit, I had many parents request a continuation of the class to keep little learners active with their learning as they enter second grade! This is a year long class that starts on August 29th, however each week is a new skill and you can join in at anytime! 

If you took my first grade class, or if you are going to be starting second grade, this class is for you!  We will learn sights words, and other reading skills. We will work on our reading comprehension and understanding the parts of a story and story elements. We will learn about literature and informational text. We will work on our phonics, fluency, and word recognition. We will learn various spelling patterns, and grammar. We will be building our vocabulary, making connections, inferences, and using context clues as we read. Second grade is a vital year as the students transition from learning to read, into third grade where they will read to learn.

We will learn and master a variety of math skills, including but not limited to number identification, number sense, place value up to 1,000. As well as addition, subtraction, shapes, time, fractions , and more. Students will also learn to write and share information in a variety of ways, including drawing, writing letters and words, listening to others, and speaking aloud. 

Occasionally, throughout the year I will toss in some fun science, and themed learning days as well. 
This class has a lot of information to be learned. I do ask that you teach your child how to mute and unmute. I do sometimes need to mute, while I am teaching a concept. A simple background noise like a dog barking or someone on the phone, or even an echo depending on their location, or students making sounds, can disrupt the learning and flow of the class. I do love to engage with the students, and I ask that they know how to unmute themselves when called on. If your child is in a quiet environment, muting is not necessary, as long as they are respectful ( ie: not making noises, talking, singing during instruction.) I appreciate your understanding in this! It really does make the world of a difference. I want everyone to get what they deserve out of the class, with minimal distractions. 


Please be sure to bring a white board, dry erase marker, and eraser or a piece of paper and pencil.
