What your child will be learning in second-grade mathematics
In grade two, students will extend their understanding of place value to the hundreds place. They will use this place value understanding to solve word problems, including those involving length and other units of measure. Students will continue to work on their addition and subtraction skills, quickly and accurately adding and subtracting numbers up through 20 and also working with numbers up through 100. They will also build a foundation for understanding fractions by working with shapes and geometry. See the unit information below to learn more about how math will unfold across the year.

Partnering with your child's teacher
Partnering with your child's teacher
Getting to know your child's teacher is important and communication with them throughout the year will support your child's individual growth while learning mathematics. Don’t be afraid to reach out to them—you are an important part of your child’s education. Ask to see a sample of your child’s work or bring a sample with you. Ask the teacher questions like:
Is my child at the level where he/she should be at this point of the school year?
Where is my child excelling?
What do you think is giving my child the most trouble? How can I help my child improve in this area?
