2nd Grade Interventions

Children go through phases of reading development from preschool through third grade. We start with learning our letters/sounds/sight words by the exploration of books and then move to independent reading. In second grade, children should be reading simple stories and should be able to write about a topic that is meaningful to them. Below are a few websites that you can use with your second grade student.

Khan Academy is a great resource for students K-12. It has been adding many new reading resources. Feel free to also practice math skills here, too!

Starfall - This website is created for students in grades PK-3. However, for a student that is struggling with some reading skills, this is a wonderful resource to use to fill in gap areas or to use for review. I encourage any student needing help with reading or math skills to check out this site. Enjoy!
