This document is based on the idea of "daily prompts," in a day by day calendar format. However, it's unique because it's "daily prompts," based on each common core math standard for Grade 2.

Each calendar possesses:
*15 challenging questions/activities, word problems, questions that require the use of manipulatives etc...
* Operations and algebraic thinking (2.OA) 30 prompts to choose from- 2 calendars
* Numbers and Operations in Base Ten (2.NBT) 30 prompts to choose from- 2 calendars
* Measurement and Data (2.MD) 45 prompts to choose from- 3 calendars
* Geometry (2.G) 15 prompts to choose from- 1 calendar

TOTAL= 8 calendars
THE PROMPTS CAN BE SELECTED AT RANDOM. I HAVE MY STUDENTS LIGHTLY COLOR THE BOX THEY'VE SELECTED AND DATE IT. All work is done in their math notebook and I call these problems "Problem of the Day" (POD).

* There is a short project at the end as well.

Here are sample questions 1 from each calendar:

2.OA
Circle the Odd numbers, and put a box around the even numbers.

2, 6, 5, 1, 9, 11, 14, 22, 15, 40, 16, 28, 37

In your notebook make a list of 4 more odd numbers and 4 more even numbers.

2.NBT

measure a friend

Data: Survey the girls in your class. Ask them which color they like the best: pink, red, blue, or purple.
