In second grade, we focus on foundational writing skills and composition.
Students will learn the mechanics to transcribe their ideas effectively, including:
Handwriting
Spelling
Language and Conventions
Students apply foundational skills as they follow the writing process (prewrite - draft - revise and edit - publish). Throughout the year, we complete the following types of writing projects:
Unit 1: Introduction to Writing
Unit 2: Informational Text (List Article)
Unit 3: Opinion Writing
Unit 4: Personal Narrative
Unit 5: Informational Text (How-To Book)
