  1. Second Grade Curriculum Miss. Brick Mrs. Brown Mrs. EdwardsMrs. Gore

  2. Proficiency Standards for Reading Beginning of the Year Reading Level J(BOY) Reading Level K for end of first nine weeks Oral Retell 3 out of 5 questions Middle of the Year Reading Level L (MOY) Reading Level L for end of 2nd nine weeks Oral Retell 3 out of 5 questions

  3. Proficiency Standards for Reading • Reading Level M for end of third nine weeks • End of Year (EOY) Reading Level N • Reading Level N for end of fourth nine weeks • Oral Retell 3 out of 5 questions

  4. mClass, Dibels, and TRC • mClass is our reading assessment platform for K-3. • There are 2 components to 2nd grades test, Dibles and TRC. • Dibels cover 2 assessments in 2nd grade. The first is NWF (Nonsense Word Fluency) and Dorf (Oral Reading Fluency). • TRC assess Text Reading Comprehension.

  5. Home Connect Letter • Once a testing session is complete (BOY, MOY, EOY) a tailored letter for your child is generated. It outlines your child’s success with the assessment and gives you tips that you can use to help your child.

  6. Strategies for Parents • Reading through the words • Using the story’s meaning • Self Correcting • Fluency (speed with accuracy) • Comprehension (oral)

  7. Story Elements from Retelling Questions • Character Development • Setting • Plot • Problem • Solution • Author’s Purpose • Text to Text • Specific Details

  8. Character Development • Describe how characters respond to major events & challenges. • Choose one character. Why is this character important in the story? • How do any of the characters feelings change throughout the story?

  9. Setting • Where does the story take place? • Tell me what the place was like? • Have you ever been to a place like this? • Did the story take place a long time ago/in the future/now/a season/abstract/more than one day? • If the setting changed, how would it change the story? (time or place)

  10. Plot • What happens in the story. • Beginning • Middle • End

  11. Problem • Is there a problem? • Who has a problem? Is there one problem or more?

  12. Solution • How does the problem get solved? • How would you solve the problem? • Did the character (s) solve the problem the best way possible? How do you know?

  13. Authors Purpose • Why do you think the author wrote this story? • Persuade (nonfiction) • Inform (nonfiction) • Entertain (fiction)

  14. Text to Text • Compare and contrast two or more versions of the same story. (fiction) • Compare and contrast two books on the same topic (nonfiction)

  15. Specific Details • Ask and answer (oral & written) such questions as: • Who? • What? • Where? • When? • Why? • How?

  16. Genre • Fiction (realistic, fairy tales, fantasy, fables, and folk tales) • Poetry • Nonfiction (biography, autobiography, informational)

  17. Text Features • Captions • Diagrams • Bold Print • Glossaries • Indexes • Electronic Menus & Icons

  18. Language Arts Standards • 1. Reading in Literature (comprehension of fictional text) • 2. Reading Informational Text (comprehension of nonfiction text) • 3. Language Skills(conventions of standard English and vocabulary) • 4. Writing (narrative, informative, opinion) • 5. Speaking and Listening (productive participation in discussions of writing) • 6. Foundational Skills (phonics, word recognition, spelling and fluency) *These are assessed formatively through using journal writing, reading groups, and writing samples. Summative a language arts tests.

  19. Math Standards • 80% proficiency or higher for objectives covered in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd nine weeks. • By the end of the year, 80% proficiency or higher for all objectives to meet promotion standards.

  20. Math Standards • Operations and Algebraic Thinking • Numbers and Operations in Base Ten • Measurement and Data • Geometry

  21. Operations and Algebraic Thinking • Demonstrate fluency with addition and subtraction, within 20, using mental strategies. • Use addition to find the total number of objects arranged in rectangular arrays with up to 5 rows and up to 5 columns; write an equation to express the total as a sum of equal addends. • Odd and Even

  22. Determine whether a group of objects, within 20, has an odd or even number of members by: • Pairing objects, then counting them by 2s. • Determining whether objects can be placed into two equal groups. • Writing an equation to express an even number as a sum of two equal addends

  23. Explain Your Reasoning • Children must be able to explain how they solved any problem using words, pictures, or numbers. • Use math vocabulary. • (equation, partitioning, sum, difference, addends) • SHOW YOUR WORK!

  24. Numbers and Operations in Base ten • Place Value: Understanding that every number has a place and a value depending on place. • Skip Counting (5, 10, 100) • Ten more, Ten less, One hundred more, One hundred less (mentally) • Read and Write Numbers • Compare numbers (>, <, = )

  25. Fluently add and subtract within 100 using strategies rooted in base ten. • Flexibly using strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction. • Comparing addition and subtraction strategies, and explaining why they work. • Selecting an appropriate strategy in order to efficiently compute sums and differences. The standard algorithm of carrying or borrowing is neither an expectation nor a focus in Second Grade. Students develop strategies for addition and subtraction in Grades K-3. • Add and subtract within 1,000. Not until the 3rd nine weeks. Still no algorithm

  26. Measurement and Data • Selecting and using appropriate tools. (rulers, yard sticks, meter sticks, measuring tapes) • Measure an object with two different units and compare and discuss. • Estimate lengths using inches, feet, yards. • Compare the length of different objects with the same unit. • Solve word problems involving measurement.

  27. Time and Money • AM and PM • Analog and Digital • Reading time to the nearest five minutes. (using terms such as quarter to, quarter past, half past, etc.) • Solving word problems involving dollar bills, quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies. • Use the dollar and cent symbols correctly.

  28. Data • Picture Graph Draw a picture graph and a bar graph with a single-unit scale to represent a data set. Solve simple put-together, take-apart, and compare problems using information presented in a picture and a bar graph. • Bar Graph

  29. Geometry • Recognize and draw plane shapes. • Identify triangles, quadrilaterals, hexagons, rectangular prisms and cubes. • Partition circles and rectangles into 2, 3, or 4 equal shares (fractions). • Describe the whole as 2/2, 3/3, 4/4.

  30. Science and Social Studies Physical Science (sound and matter) Earth Science (weather) Life Science (animal life cycles) History (timeline, sequencing of events, and people) Geography and Environment (maps, natural resources, and how we affect the environment) Economics and Finance (needs/wants, goods/services, consumers/producers, and using money) Civics and Government (purposes of the government, rules/laws, and good citizenship) Culture (understand how cultures influence communities and understanding diversity, recognize the different traditions and customs)

  31. Wilson County Grade Scale • M: mastery 90% and above. • S: satisfactory 80% to 89% • N: needs improvement 70% to 79% • U: unsatisfactory 69% below

  32. Thank you • Thank you so much for supporting your child and our efforts. • If you have any questions please feel free to contact your second grade teachers!!! • Miss Brick • Mrs. Brown • Mrs. Edwards • Mrs. Gore
