Learning Expectations
2nd Grade Math
By second grade, students tend to be more confident about their mathematical abilities and are focused more on problem solving. Their knowledge in math is now more applied to real-life situations such as counting money and time. Their skills in adding and subtracting two digit numbers will also be more developed at this stage. By this time, students begin to learn how to reason and concentrate and to use mathematical strategies in problem solving.
