Welcome To Second Grade! ¡Bienvenidos a Segundo Grado!

Our Philosophy
The second grade team will create a classroom environment that is welcoming and that supports all students’ independent problem solving skills, both academic and social emotional. We will base this on the Bateman core values: be kind, be inclusive, and be empowered. The team will guide our students in enjoying the process of taking risks, embracing challenges, and celebrating differences. Nuestra Filosofía El equipo de segundo grado creará un ambiente de clase que sea acogedor y que apoye las habilidades de resolución de problemas independientes de todos los estudiantes, tanto académicos como sociales y emocionales. Basaremos esto en los valores centrales de Bateman: ser amable, ser inclusivo y estar empoderado. El equipo guiará a nuestros estudiantes para que disfruten el proceso de asumir riesgos, aceptar desafíos, y celebrar las diferencias. Instructional Approach
We use a workshop model in reading, writing and math. Each subject begins with a whole-group lesson presenting a new skill or strategy, followed by independent work time when students try out their new learning while the teachers meet with small groups, using differentiation and modification to meet the needs of all of the students. Enfoque de Nuestra Instrucción Utilizamos un modelo de taller en lectura, escritura y matemáticas. Cada lección comienza con una clase de grupo completo cuando la maestra presenta una nueva habilidad o estrategia. Despues los estudiantes tienen un tiempo de trabajo independiente cuando prueban su nuevo aprendizaje mientras los maestros se reúnen con grupos pequeños, utilizando la diferenciación y modificación para satisfacer las necesidades de todos los alumnos. Differentiation: Meeting the Needs of Each Learner
We are committed to helping each of our students grow and develop! We so this in a variety of ways:

Curriculum Details Detalles del Plan de Estudios
Second grade mathematicians build their base-ten understanding.
Math
In math we use the Common-Core aligned GoMath curriculum to develop students’ number sense, teach addition and subtraction strategies, build base ten understanding, and introduce concepts of geometry, data collection, and measurement. One of the most challenging aspects of second grade math is learning to “regroup” ten ones to form a group of ten, and regroup ten groups of ten to form a hundred. This skill allows us to add and subtract two and three digit numbers. Parents might remember this as “borrowing and carrying.” In math we study:
Matemáticas En matemáticas, utilizamos el plan de estudios GoMath alineado con los Common Core State Standards para desarrollar el conocimiento numérico de los estudiantes, enseñar estrategias de suma y resta, desarrollar una comprensión de base diez, e introducir conceptos de geometría, recolección de datos y medición. Uno de los aspectos más desafiantes de las matemáticas de segundo grado es aprender a "reagrupar" diez para formar un grupo de diez, y reagrupar diez grupos de diez para formar cien. Esta habilidad nos permite sumar y restar números de dos y tres dígitos. En matemáticas estudiamos: Sentido numérico y valor posicional
Social Emotional Learning
Each week, using the Second Step curriculum, we teach and practice social emotional skills that help students understand their emotions, learn strategies to navigate difficult situations and empower them to build strong friendships. We use the Responsive Classroom approach to build a classroom community. Aprendizaje Social Emocional Cada semana, usando el currículo Second Step, enseñamos y practicamos habilidades sociales y emocionales que ayudan a los estudiantes a comprender sus emociones, aprender estrategias para navegar en situaciones difíciles y capacitarlos para construir amistades fuertes. Utilizamos el enfoque Responsive Classroom para construir una comunidad de aula. |
 Second grade reading partners support each other's comprehension.
Literacy
Our reading and writing units, which are based on the Teachers College Reading and Writing Project Units of Study, integrate social studies and allow students to pursue their own emerging inquiries. By closely aligning reading and writing, students build a deep understanding of different genres. They study how authors craft stories and informational texts to make their work entertaining and educational, then try their hands at doing the same! Quarter 1: Individuals Shape Our Community
Nuestras unidades de lectura y escritura, que se basan en las Unidades de Estudio del Proyecto de Lectura y Escritura de Teachers College, integran estudios sociales y permiten a los estudiantes realizar sus propias investigaciones emergentes. Al alinear la lectura y la escritura, los estudiantes desarrollan una comprensión profunda de los diferentes géneros. Estudian cómo los autores crean historias y textos informativos para que su trabajo sea entretenido y educativo, ¡y luego intentan hacer lo mismo Trimestre 1: los individuos dan forma a nuestra comunidad
Second grade scientists sort solid objects by their properties.
Science
We use Full Option Science System (FOSS) to guide students in a series of hands on explorations in science. These units are aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards. We learn about:

Homework
Each classroom has a slightly different approach to homework, but we ALL agree that it’s essential for second grade readers to read for at least 20 minutes every night! Students will benefit from reading in any language they know and can read to themselves, to a family member, or even to a stuffed animal. We encourage families to ask students about their reading, using questions like:

Students will benefit from reading in any language they know and can read to themselves, to a family member, or even to a stuffed animal. We encourage families to ask students about their reading, using questions like:
- What are the characters in this story like? How do you know?
- What problems do the characters have? How did they solve them?
- What lesson did the characters learn in this book?
- What is this nonfiction book teaching you?
- Why do you think the author included this part?
