Second Grade Learning Pod Full Curriculum: Reading, Writing, Phonics & Math! Part 2

This class will cover part 2 of second grade reading, writing, phonics and math curriculum based common core standards. I am an experienced teacher with 9 years teaching experience. Over the past 6 years I have taught 2nd grade at my local public school, teaching all subject areas (reading, writing, math, phonics, science and social studies). I am excited to learn with your learner this school year!

I believe in meeting learners at their current academic level and providing an encouraging learning environment to facilitate meaningful learning. Learners should come to class with paper and pencil or whiteboard. I encourage discussions and lots of interaction but also understand some learners prefer not to participate and enjoy listening to class discussions. 

Each subject taught (reading, writing, phonics, math) will include a mini-lesson, group practice and independent practice. The mini lesson will include the new teaching point, which the teacher will demonstrate using interactive slides and/or Jamboard.  Math instruction will include a worksheet that will be provided by the teacher each week. If you wish to print the worksheet you may do so or learners can follow along using a whiteboard or piece of paper while I share my screen during the lesson.
