Reading and Writing
Since students at this young age vary greatly in readiness for reading and writing, Individual Studies, Grade 2, offers two tracks of reading and writing plans: A and B. Select the track that best fits your student and follow that track’s plans throughout the year. Track A—For students who can already read many words and short sentences and can print letters but need more practice reading and writing to gain fluency. Track A plans use Busy Times, More Busy Times, and A Child’s Copybook Reader, Volumes 1–3. Track B—For students who would benefit from more reading practice and who are ready to learn cursive. Track B plans use New Friends, More New Friends, and Print to Cursive Proverbs.Science
Use any of our SCM living science courses—such as Outdoor Secrets with The Outdoor Secrets Companion, The Pond and Stream Companion, or Learning about Birds with Thornton Burgess—and feel free to combine your children in grades 1–6. These plans will remind you when to do the next science lesson and keep you moving at an enjoyable pace, with some catch-up days included. Journaling a Year in Nature is recommended for nature study.Math
Lessons include reminders to work on your choice of math curriculum.1 GradeIndividual Studies Grade 2
