Welcome 2nd Grade Parents!
I am excited to announce the debut of our class's website which will continue our learning in the content areas of literacy and mathematics! This website's primary purpose is to integrate second grade literacy and subtraction. It is my hope that you will use this site as a tool to investigate subtraction vocabulary, literature, word probems, games, apps, and other online sources that will help your child continue to develop a sound understanding of subtraction.
