Course Description
In this course, students will embark on an adventure around the world to discover a mysterious animal that is rumored to be a dragon! Along the way, they will need to learn and apply the most important second-grade math skills. This course is structured such that students are encouraged to take the same class multiple times and ask questions until they have learned the skills needed for the next class in the course. Each class covers a significant portion of second-grade math, so take your time. Most kids will complete this course in 4-12 weeks.
Why This Course Is Important
Second-grade math bridges the gap between the early numeracy skills used in first grade with higher-level skills like multiplication and division. By framing multiplication and division as repeated addition and subtraction, students make connections between several operators and their inverse relationships. These foundational skills are critical for building confidence and enabling success for years to come.
What To Bring To Class
All that’s needed in class is the printed-out printable corresponding with the class and a pencil. You can find the printable on this page within the specific class information or into the left under “Documents”.
Skills Covered
In the 2nd-grade math course, students master double-digit addition and subtraction, explore place value in the hundreds, and compare three-digit numbers. They confidently skip count by 3s and 5s and build the foundations for multiplication and division. Through engaging activities, they solve multi-step problems, use addition and subtraction to solve up to 100, and develop an understanding of multiplication and division through repeated addition and subtraction. This course fosters essential mathematical skills and problem-solving abilities, setting the stage for further learning.
-
