[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We just had back to school night and second grade math is addition and subtraction up to 200, then place values and then introduction to the concept of multiplication. Those are the only three topics for 2nd and the first two seem like a repeat of 1st. Is this true at all schools for 2nd?[/quote] That's about right for the age. Get the basics down pat before tacking mult-division otherwise you risk setting them years behind and a trainwreck. Mult/Div is based upon repeated addition/subtraction, so without that fundamental basis mastered, it won't work. Then when they tackle decimals, fractions, etc. they really crash without a good foundation. Use flash cards to help them improve at home. Best $10 you will ever spend on your kids education is a set of flash cards for Add/Sub/Mult/Div. [/quote]
