Though classrooms differ from state to state, your child will learn a lot of universal reading and writing facts, practices, and rules. By the end of second grade, your child should be able to answer the following questions.
- What happened in the story? (summarizing)
- What is the main idea? What are the details?
- What is a subject? Verb? Adjective?
- What happened first? What happened last? (sequencing)
- What caused X to happen? What is the effect of X?
Practice at home-- After reading a story, talk about these questions with your child. This will give them another opportunity to remember what they’ve learned.
