👋🏼  Welcome, second-grade friends! 👋🏼
 I’m so excited to embark on this wonderful learning journey with your amazing kids this year. We have a fantastic adventure ahead, filled with numbers, geometry, patterns, and so much more.

Each week, we’ll dive into new and exciting math topics, making sure to have plenty of fun along the way. From hands-on activities to engaging games, I’m dedicated to making math a joyful and enriching experience for your children.

🖍️ What a Typical Class Looks Like 🖍️

Each week, we'll dive into a brand-new 2nd-grade topic. A typical class will kick things off with fun warm-ups to review what we've already learned and make sure we're all set for new discoveries. Then, it's time for our mini-lesson, where we'll explore the day's exciting subject and become super smart about it!  First, I'll show you how it's done, then we'll try it together, and finally, you'll get to show off your new skills all by yourself. Ready to learn and have a blast? Let's go! 🚀📚✨
