What is the 2nd Grade Math Curriculum?

Tara West’s 2nd Grade Math units are teacher created, kid-tested, and most importantly - kid-approved! The 2nd Grade Math units take away that monotonous way of teaching math where students sit and listen to the teacher TEACH math. Instead, they encourage guidance from the teacher while the students TEACH and LEARN math through hands-on and engaging math activities with their partners.

2nd Grade Math units are made up of 10+ instructional days each, but can be adjusted to fit your classroom needs. The units include a pre- and post-test as a way to ensure student growth over the unit.

What is the scope and sequence?

The 2nd Grade Math Curriculum is a 30 week math curriculum that includes lesson plans that break down a 60 minute block math time into these sections {warm up, whole-group number sense, whole-group fluency, whole-group math lesson, collaborate lesson follow-up aka pair work and independent practice aka worksheet}. The units will also include any and all cards needed to make the lessons successful! You will just need to provide the manipulatives!

The 2nd Grade Math Curriculum is a simple print and teach math curriculum. No more tracking down ideas, worksheets, cards, etc! I have it covered!

What is included in the 2nd Grade Math Curriculum?

- Teacher "simple read" lesson plans. You will not need to rewrite these lesson plans, unless you choose to do so. If so I have included editable lesson plans.

- Each week I have planned out the; big idea, focus standards, vocabulary, checks for understanding, critical thinking starters, and material/prep list.

- 2 page Pre-Test and 2 page Post-Test included (answers keys + EXCEL data tracker)
