Second Grade Continuous Learning June 2020

Draw a picture of your favorite summer spot. This could include a park, playground, water slide, or vacation spot. Include as many details as you can.

NAME: _____________________

Dear Families:

This packet includes daily math and literacy activities that your student can complete offline from home.

Many of the activities will be review activities to serve as extra practice while some skills may be new to

your student. Please feel free to help your student review any pages that may be challenging.

Daily Activities:

● Reading : Every day, your student should be reading whether that be with you or independently.

Included in this packet are several texts for your student to read. The same book or text can be

read multiple times throughout the month. Students who are able can complete a reading log

capturing what they read each day.

● Writing: Blank pages are included in the packet for your student to create their own stories.

This is the perfect time to foster their creativity and imagination. Students should practice

writing fiction and non-fiction texts.

● Math: There are several math worksheets included in the packet. Once your student has

completed the worksheets, have them write their own problems for a family member to

complete. Your student can check the work to make sure all the answers are correct.

○ Math facts are also a very important aspect of your student’s math life that should be

reviewed and practiced throughout the summer. Expectations for math facts are as

follows:

■ Grade 1: Mastery of addition and subtraction facts up to 10

■ Grade 2: Mastery of addition and subtraction facts up to 20

■ Grade 3-5: Maintain mastery of addition and subtraction facts up to 20

Mastery of all multiplication and division facts up to 10

Keep learning fun and remember that each student works at their own pace. If your student gets

restless or frustrated, take a brain break and revisit the activity later. Use this opportunity of working at

home to develop independence, perseverance, problem-solving skills, and creativity. The most

important thing is for your student to enjoy learning!

Reading aloud models fluent reading for your child; develops your child’s understanding of text

structures, features, and genres; builds vocabulary and comprehension skills; and fosters a love of

reading. Use the information on these pages to create a read-aloud routine for you and your child

at home. The steps that follow work for both fiction and informational (or nonfiction) story books.

The steps and the comprehension questions provided are appropriate for children in kindergarten

through second grade.

Read-aloud routine and comprehension questions adapted from The Superkids Reading Program continued…

Read-Aloud Routine for Story Books

Follow these steps when reading aloud:

1. Introduce the book to your child. Point

out the title, author, and illustrator. If

you’ve read other books by the author or

illustrator, remind your child about these

books. Talk about what kind of book it

is—a fiction, or make-believe, book that is

like real life; a fairy tale; an informational

book about real people and events; a poem;

or a play. Then discuss the title and cover

illustrations and ask your child what he

or she thinks the book will be about. Talk

about any prior knowledge or experiences

related to the book’s topic.

2. Read with expression and appropriate

pacing. Use your voice to convey

characters’ emotions. Slow down when

giving complex information. Give your

child time to study pictures and think

about what he or she is hearing.

3. Pause occasionally to discuss the text and

pictures. Check that your child understands

who is speaking and what is happening in a

story or the main ideas and key details of an

informational text. Have your child make

or confirm predictions and help your child

understand vocabulary important to the

text. Give opportunities for your child to

ask questions, too. If your child has trouble

answering questions, think aloud and explain

how you would figure out the answer, for

example, by rereading, looking at pictures, or

thinking about what makes sense.

4. Discuss the book after you’ve read it.

Help your child make connections between

different parts of the book. Also help your

child make connections between the book

and his or her own experiences, other books,

and the world around you. See the next

page for questions you can ask for fiction

and informational (or nonfiction) texts.

Comprehension QuestionsChoose any of these questions in blue to help your child understand and evaluate

a book you read aloud. Modify the wording to include specific details from the

book and ask your child to explain his or her thinking.

Fiction booksSummarize/Retell

What important events happened in the story?

Show pictures to prompt recall.

Recognize plot structure

What problem(s) did the character have? How did the

problem(s) get solved?

Tell about the story’s beginning, middle, and end.

Determine cause and effect

Describe an event from the story. Then ask:

Why did this happen?

Develop vocabulary

Reread a sentence with an interesting vocabulary

word or idiom. Then ask: What does this mean?

If needed, give a child-friendly explanation and help

your child use the word or phrase in another context.

Understand characters/Draw conclusions

Who is this story about? How did this character feel at

the beginning of the story? Why? How did she feel at the

end of the story? What happened that made her feelings

change? What do you think about how the character

acted? What lesson(s) about life does the story teach?

Connect text to self, the world, and other texts

Have you ever felt like this character or had something

similar happen to you? Explain.

Are the characters in this story like any real people you

know? Where does this story take place? Do you know

any places like that?

Do the characters or events in this story remind you of

another story? Explain.

Give and support opinions

Did you like the book? Why or why not? Tell about a

favorite part. If you were the author, how might you

change the story? Why?

Informational (or nonfiction) booksIdentify main idea and retell key details

What was this book all about?

What important information did you learn from this book?

Review headings and pictures to help your child

with recall.

Understand pictures, diagrams, and text features

What does this picture (or diagram) show? What

more did you learn from the text? Where can you find

information about _______?

Sequence steps in a process

What does this book explain how to do or make?

What happens first? Next? After that? Last?

Compare and contrast

Identify two or more people, events, or objects.

Then ask: How are these alike? How are they different?

Determine cause and effect

Tell about an event that happened. Why did it happen?

Why did someone do this action?

Develop vocabulary

Identify a concept word from the book. Then ask:

What can you tell me about this word? If needed, give a

child-friendly explanation of it and help your child

use it in sentences.

Understand an author’s reasons

Restate an opinion or a point the author makes.

Then ask: Why does the author think this? What reasons

does the author give to explain his thinking?

Connect text to self, the world, and other texts

Do you know anything else about the information in this

book? What else would you like to know? Does this book

remind you of any other books you know? Explain.

Give and support opinions

Did you like the book? Why or why not? What did you

find interesting? If you were the author, how might you

change the book? Why?
