What your child will practice
The workbook has 8 tip sheets, one for each big 2nd grade topic. Every question on the daily pages shows the number of the tip sheet that explains it, so your child always knows where to look.
- Tip 1: Place value to 1,000Every digit has a value that depends on its place. Hundreds are flats, tens are rods and ones are little cubes.
- Tip 2: Adding with regroupingLine up the ones under the ones and the tens under the tens. Add the ones first. 10 ones make 1 ten, so carry it to the tens.
- Tip 3: Subtracting with regroupingSubtract the ones first. If the top digit is too small, trade 1 ten for 10 ones.
- Tip 4: Facts to 20Use what you know. Make a 10, use doubles, and remember that subtraction is just a missing addition.
- Tip 5: Arrays, even and oddAn array shows equal rows. Add the rows to find how many in all. Even numbers can be shared into pairs with none left over.
- Tip 6: Time and moneyThe short hand shows the hour. The long hand shows the minutes: count by 5s for each number. For coins, start with the biggest and count on.
- Tip 7: Shapes, length and graphsEqual parts must be the same size. To compare lengths, subtract. On a graph, read the number at the top of each bar.
- Tip 8: Solving word problemsRead the story twice. Find the question. Decide: put together (add) or take away (subtract)? Then check your answer.
