Second Grade


In Vineland Public Schools we use the math program Everyday Math.  This program utilizes a spiraling format which means that we don’t work on one main topic, we work on many different math concepts simultaneously.  The concepts are taught and revisited throughout the year.

Below you will find the units and content for the program as well as a few of the extra projects that we do in each unit for fun and extra practice!




 


Unit 1

Numbers and Routines

We will review of concepts from first grade and establish routines for second grade math.

 


Unit 2

Addition and Subtraction Facts

We will start getting our addition and subtraction facts memorized and learn some fun tricks to do it!

 


Unit 3

Place value, time, and money

We will read fun books about money and practice “buying” and counting change.

 


Unit 4

Addition and Subtraction

We'll start adding and subtracting bigger numbers! This is one of our major math accomplishments in second grade.  It's so exciting!

 


Unit 5

2D and 3D Shapes


We will learn the names of many shapes.  We’ll go on a shape scavenger hunt.

 


Unit 6

Whole Number Operations

More adding and subtracting and then we'll start multiplying and dividing! Be ready to make lots of tasty arrays.

 


Unit 7

Patterns and Rules


We'll be doubling and halving lots of numbers as well as looking at data to find the median, mode, and range.

 


Unit 8

Fractions


This is s fun unit! We will make edible fractions, learn fraction spelling, fraction kites, and fraction creatures... and that's just a few of the fun ways we will learn about fractions! 

 


Unit 9

Measurement


Be ready to use all kinds of tools to measure... rulers, yard sticks, meter sticks, cups, spoons... we'll measure all sorts of things! 

 


Unit 10

Place Value and Decimals

We'll review money and place value. We will even do some math with parentheses!!! I know you'll love figuring out the parentheses puzzles!

 


Unit 11

Whole Number Operations

This unit focuses on putting together everything we've learned about addition and subtraction to help us with multiplication and division problems. Be ready for lots of hands-on activities! 

 


Unit 12

Review


This is a fun unit where you get to see how much you grew as a mathematician in 2nd grade!

 


 You will have math homework nightly, Monday through Thursday. It will either be a HomeLink page so you can practice what we did in class or a math worksheet. It must be completed and returned the next day! You can also play math games to practice the skills we've learned in class.  You should also practice your math facts 10 – 15 minutes three times a week.  You may do this by playing some of the math games we learn in class.
