Second Grade Northwood's second grades are dedicated to developing both the character and the intellect of each student. We solidify and extend basic literacy and math skills with a focus on the expansion of higher thinking skills as well. Our social studies curriculum is defined by studies of the neighborhood and community - their groups and interactions. Key concepts in science are life cycles of plants and animals as well as changes in matter and energy. Science is highlighted by our annual trip to the Natural Science Center in Greensboro.
Students are well-served by the integration of skills and concepts across the curriculum.
Social and recreational needs of each student are met through involvement with the area Special Olympics program.
