Week 10: Summer Math for 2nd Grade

Rising 2nd Grade Summer Math Review

We’re almost done! Just over one week of summer math review to go! In doing [most] of these math problems with my son, I realized a few things:

• He needs to review the months of the year as he keeps skipping the month of May.
• He doesn’t know our home phone numbers or our cell phone number.
• He doesn’t know our zip code or what a zip code is.
• He thinks we live in Boston. We do not.
• He still needs to learn to ride a bike. Ok, I didn’t get this from the math review, but it’s reminding me that he needs to learn.

p.s. The other weeks are here: Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, Week 5, Week 6, Week 7, Week 8, Week 9.
