Students will be learning a great deal of academic curriculum as well as character building techniques. We will touch on material such as manners, classroom procedures, acceptable behavior, accountability, responsibility, and respect. Second grade is an ideal time to continue practicing essential information such as practicing and improving reading and writing skills, mathematical skills, and vocabulary/phonics. We will touch on sight words, and new vocabulary, mathematical operations such as simple addition, and subtraction and so much more! We will have a daily "DEAR" (Drop Everything And Read) time for 20 minutes of our day. This is beneficial for students as it helps improve their reading, fluency, and comprehension skills, as well as many other areas.
Student mastery will be accessed through periodic quizzes, and content-based knowledge tests. Along with consistent hands-on activities, worksheets, projects, and more. Mastery will also be accessed periodically throughout the course of the year using exit tickets, review games, student self assessments, and more. I will grade students on a percentage/letter grading scale. In class work will be worth 40% of the students grade, homework will be worth 30% and tests and quizzes will be worth 30% of the students final grades.
