Our 2nd Grade Homeschooling Curriculum Aligned with NJ SLS

We focus on the New Jersey Student Learning Standards (NJ SLS) for 2nd Grade to make sure your child meets (and even exceeds) the goals for this grade. Here’s a look at what we teach:

Homeschool Math

  • Mental Addition and Subtraction:
    Your child will practice adding and subtracting one-digit numbers mentally, helping them build a strong foundation for more complex math later.

  • Place Value and Expanded Form:
    Students will learn to identify the ones, tens, and hundreds of places and break numbers down into expanded forms (e.g., 267 = 200 + 60 + 7).

  • Geometry and Fractions:
    Kids will explore shapes and understand fractions by dividing shapes into equal parts, helping them relate geometry to everyday situations.

  • Telling Time:
    Our lessons introduce reading analog and digital clocks, focusing on understanding hours, minutes, and seconds.

Homeschool Reading

  • Vocabulary Development:
    Your child will learn to understand words based on context, including the concept of cause and effect in stories.

  • Main Idea:
    We help students identify the main idea of a text, making it easier for them to understand what they’re reading.

  • Paraphrasing:
    Kids will practice rephrasing sentences to make them easier to understand, improving their reading comprehension.

  • Genres:
    Your child will learn to recognize different genres, such as fiction, non-fiction, and poetry, helping them understand the diversity of texts.

Homeschool Writing

  • Informational Writing:
    Students will learn how to write clear, factual pieces on a given topic, introducing them to the basics of non-fiction writing.

  • Opinion Writing:
    Using the O.R.E.O method, your child will practice writing opinion pieces with supporting reasons and examples.

  • Narrative Writing
    Kids will write stories based on personal experiences or imagination, learning how to organize a narrative with a beginning, middle, and end.

  • Sentence Structure:
    We’ll teach your child how to build clear sentences using subjects and predicates, giving them a solid foundation for all types of writing.

How We Support Your 2nd Grader (And Make Your Life Easier!)

Customized Learning Plans: Every child learns differently, so we customize lessons to fit your child’s unique strengths and areas they might need more help with. With a personalized approach, your 2nd grader can learn at their own pace and feel confident in their progress.

Regular Progress Updates:
We keep you in the loop! You’ll get regular updates on how your child is doing, so you can easily track their improvements. We’ll let you know what they’ve mastered and where they may need a little more practice so you always know what’s coming next.

Flexible Scheduling with Special Discounts:
Homeschooling doesn’t always happen during traditional school hours, and we get that! If you need tutoring at a different time, we offer special discounts for homeschooling families so you can get the help your child needs without worrying about your schedule or budget.

2nd Grade Homeschool Special Pricing & Off-Peak Discounts

Homeschooling gives you the freedom to schedule lessons whenever it works best for you and your child. We know that weekday mornings or early afternoons can be perfect times for focused learning, as they’re typically when most kids are in school. That’s why we offer discounted rates for off-peak hours. You can save money while your 2nd grader gets the one-on-one attention they need, all without the hassle of after-school crowds.
