Second Grade Overview Minimize

Curriculum Overview

 

            Second grade is a fun year for our Bell-Graham students! Our second graders work very hard practicing their writing skills and refining the reading strategies they’ve learned in kindergarten and first grade. Math facts, computations, mental math, measurement, and geometry are all a part of the curriculum for our second grade students. We learn about how to have a healthful lifestyle and use technology to plan a balanced meal. Nurturing and studying caterpillars and releasing butterflies is only a part of the excitement of this year!
