Week 10: Summer Math for 2nd Grade

Posted on August 19, 2012May 27, 2024 by Pragmatic Mom

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.

Monday, August 20

Ask an adult to listen to you count. Start at 85, count back to 55 by ones. Now count by 25’s to 500.

Tuesday, August 21

Draw a circle and a square. Shade in a fourth of each shape.

Wednesday, August 22

I have 3 bundles of 10 and 17 left over. Jay has 4 bundles of 10 and 7 left over. Compare the amounts.

Thursday, August 23

How many cans of soup, fruit and vegetables do you have at home? If each can costs 10 cents, how much money do you need to buy all of them?

Friday, August 24

Draw and name all of the 2-dimensional shapes that have 4 sides and 4 angles. Can you make at least 5 shapes?

Saturday, August 25

Play Tens Go Fish with 0-10. It’s just like Go Fish. Instead of asking for number in your hand, ask for the number that gives you a sum of 10. Use jacks as 0 and the Ace as 1.

Sunday, August 26

Sarah reads 7 books. Jim reads 4 books. How many more books did Sarah read than Jim? Write a number sentence.

    Thanks for the math review!!! These are fun!

    Also like the confession. I think it is cute how my son counts 24, 25, 60! It will be a little less cute next year! We need to learn to ride bikes to. I went out with the kids recently and almost threw up I was so out of breath and my daughter was so afraid she was in tears!

    Blissful-e is teaching her kids on the grass in the backyard. I keep meaning to try this – good idea!

      Hi Ann,
      Thanks so much for sharing that your kids are learning to bike too. I feel like a bad parent for not getting my nearly 8 year old to learn to ride a bike!
