2st grade curriculum in a nutshell:
Welcome to
Second Grade… an adventure in learning!
Check out curriculum in a nutshell above for more science
information.
As part of study of health,
students will learn about the importance of healthy eating and
exercise. Students will also learn about personal hygiene and
basic information about substance abuse. The ongoing Second Step
Program is a tool utilized for helping students to experience
and practice empathy, impulse control, problem solving, and
anger management skills.
In second grade students will
gain knowledge to apply basic math facts and work to become
problem solvers.
This year,
students will become immersed in reading and writing. Through
our reading anthology, guided reading groups, and literacy
centers students will develop the skills and confidence to
become lifelong readers. Through the writing process students
will be exposed to different genres of literature as model text
for their own writing.
Maps: Throughout the year students will learn to understand what
maps are and how to read and use them. We create both two and
three dimensional maps as parts of many of our Social Studies units.
