Religion
2nd grade is a big year for religion! The biggest focus is learning about and experiencing the sacraments of Reconciliation and First Communion for the first time. The focus will also be on learning more about our relationship with Jesus Christ and the importance of prayer.

Language Arts
The Language Arts program is based mostly off of the Super Kids Reading Program, which is a comprehensive reading program for grades K-2. The focus this year is magazine reading for comprehension, chapter books, journal writing, developmental grammar, phonics, and writing skills. We also will be learning cursive during the second semester.

Social Studies
Social Studies will be taught during the whole year. The focus will be primarily on community and neighborhoods, citizenship, demonstrating map skills, goods and services, natural resources, and history. We will also focus on the different holidays as they arrive and keep up to date with current events happening around the world. Finally, we will be taking some time in November (although November is 2nd quarter) to learn all about the presidential election.

Science
Science will be taught during the whole year. The focus will be divided into 3 separate types of sciences: life, earth, and physical. It is my goal for students to learn how to observe, classify, measure, investigate, predict and draw conclusions from the things they are learning in science.
