Spelling
Second grade spelling is based on the A Beka Phonics
Curriculum. It implements special sounds and groups them
accordingly for each spelling list. Students begin with a list of
15 words and end the year with 25 spelling words and 3 vocabulary
words.
Phonics
The A Beka Phonics Curriculum is very rigorous.
Students learn to identify special sounds in a vast, ever
expanding vocabulary. Each lesson introduces a new special
sound(s) and then invites students to read and think of words that
incorporate the new sound. Worksheets are used to practice and
inhance student phonetic awareness.
Reading
Students begin the year with A Beka readers and work their way into chapter books.
Math
The first half of the year students review math
addition facts. The second half they are introduced to
subtraction, multiplication facts 0-5 and division by 2.
