¡Llamamos a todos los lectores, escritores y matemáticos! Clase multitemática | 2.º grado

Welcome to our multi-subject 2nd grade curriculum class! Our goal is to grow in strength as readers and writers, and gain confidence and clarity in math.

I strongly believe that learning takes place when we are being creative, using and strengthening critical thinking skills, and having fun along the way! We will be using interactive slideshows, creative games, group work, and hands on activities via printable handouts. I am a huge believer that students learn best when they are kept engaged and included in the lesson!
