The second grade program features Language Arts instruction using Open Court Reading and Mathematics instruction using Scott Foresman. Our Science text is Science by MacMillan.  Our Social Studies text is People and Places by Scott Foresman.  The Open Court units for the year are:

Our Country and Its People. 

Second grade students use a Math workbook in class to learn the many concepts presented throughout the year.  A supply list is available from the office and on the web page.  It is very important that supplies be available throughout the year.  You will be notified when your child needs supplies replaced.  Language Arts and Math homework are usually assigned nightly throughout the school year. Students will begin to learn cursive handwriting during the second part of the school year.
