Grade 2

It’s second grade! Your child is progressing on a journey of learning, and you get to be there every step of the way!

You have a lot to look forward to this year. Your student will develop problem-solving skills, practice thinking like a scientist, discover the American colonies, and even begin learning to write in cursive!

All of your child’s courses feature insightful discussions, thorough assessments, compelling stories, and clear biblical principles. Your child will learn how biblical truth affects their learning in all areas—math, English, science, history, spelling, and handwriting. And in Bible, you get to see your child learn how to apply Bible truths to everyday choices.

We cannot wait for you to experience the joy of watching your child discover more about the world and the God who made it. We believe you are the best person to walk with your student through this important stage of life, and we look forward to supporting you every step of the way. Now, let’s look at what you will need for this school year.
