Reading Skills Your 2nd Grader Will Master
Go beyond simple stories with lessons that strengthen reading comprehension for grade 2. Students practice using word parts to determine meaning, understanding compound words, using context clues, and applying dictionary and glossary skills. Advanced comprehension includes topic vs. main idea, finding facts to ask and answer questions, fiction vs. nonfiction, sensory details, author’s purpose, and even media literacy. These grade 2 reading activities are ideal for parents who want to help their child learn to read with confidence.

Reading Foundations – Phonics and Fluency
Build a strong foundation in phonics with lessons on multisyllabic words, long and short vowels, vowel digraphs and diphthongs, prefixes and suffixes, and r-controlled vowels. Students also practice contractions, irregularly spelled words, and fluency with self-correction—making this section an excellent fit for struggling readers in 2nd grade or anyone seeking a structured homeschool reading curriculum.

Writing – Expression and Creativity
Step-by-step writing lessons guide children from drafting clear sentences and paragraphs to revising and editing their work. Creative expression shines in writing stories or poems, while functional skills develop through opinion and informative writing. Students also practice publishing, keyboarding, and research, making this a complete homeschool writing curriculum for 2nd grade.

Language and Grammar – Core Foundations
Grammar lessons focus on nouns and pronouns, verbs and helping verbs, adjectives and adverbs, and sentence types. Conventions include punctuation, capitalization, dialogue with quotation marks, and alphabetical order. These lessons provide everything needed for a strong homeschool grammar curriculum and help children build better writing skills.

Speaking and Listening – Communication Skills
Children strengthen communication through listening and following directions, enjoying literature by listening for entertainment, participating in collaborative discussions, and speaking clearly and confidently. These skills prepare students for success both inside and outside the classroom, making this program a valuable addition to any 2nd grade ELA curriculum.
