Second grade math struggle

[Anonymous]

If a second grader/elementary age student is struggling w Eureka math concepts, wgat does the school do to help typically? Do they just let them do poorly and keep moving?

You should reach out to the teacher and see what they say. The school should also have a math specialist who may be able to pull them out to work with them.

Staff member here. At our school, paras are assigned to classrooms to help groups of students who need extra math or reading support. If a child also has an IEP and gets time with the HSM teacher, they will also help with completing the classwork.

Please talk to your child's teacher about your concerns!

Saturday school is low cost and designed to help in this situation.

1) Talk to the teacher first.

2) try to work on homework together. Sometimes my kids do better watching/listening to someone else. On YouTube you can look up just about any assignment and there will be a video made by a teacher during the pandemic days of the lesson, problem set & hw. For example: https://www.google.com/search?q=eureka+2+module+1&rlz=1CDGOYI_enUS1020US1020&oq=eureka+2+module+1+&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIICAEQABgWGB4yCAgCEAAYFhgeMggIAxAAGBYYHjIICAQQABgWGB4yCAgFEAAYFhgeMggIBhAAGBYYHjIICAcQABgWGB4yCAgIEAAYFhgeMggICRAAGBYYHtIBCTEzNjg2ajBqN6gCGbACAeIDBBgBIF8&hl=en-US&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:0352a4d7,vid:B7aHKFIm0xQ,st:0

3) Set up a free account on zearn & you can look up the lessons topics and how they align to eureka.
Zearn is really a great resource with engaging explanations & all sorts of activities & games.

Pap, start by talking to the teacher. Despite what you read on DCUM, Eureka is a challenging curriculum that seeks to build deep math knowledge.

You can also create a free Zearn account, which re-teaches the Eureka content. This has been helpful to my child.

Tutor them, if you can't, hire one. Now. Don't wait until HS Algebra 2 as many do.
