    What's New

    Updates to the curriculum, content, and teaching tools — newest first.

    Improvement

    Our new name: Second Grade

    The site is now called Second Grade, powered by SecondGrade.com. Old secondgrader.org addresses keep working. Short links under /go/ (for example /go/w12d2) open a week, day or standard and will be printed as QR codes in our books.

    Improvement

    A simpler site built around your school day

    A simpler site built around your school day: Today button that remembers your place, Done ticks and progress, a This week's materials panel on every week, weekly parent digests, standards linked to the lessons that teach them, cleaner menus, and better printing.

    Improvement

    Simpler menus and merged pages

    One menu on every screen: Today, Curriculum, Printables, For Parents and Search. Rubrics now live on Assessments & Rubrics, the materials list on Books & Materials, the cross-reference matrix on State Standards, and the weekly rhythm checklist on Start Here. Old addresses still work.

    Curriculum

    Rebuilt worksheets and Science assessment

    All Math and ELA Weeks 1-8 worksheets, Math Weeks 21-24, fourteen Science and Social Studies bundles and their answer keys rebuilt to match the weekly lessons; Science Unit 6 assessment added.

    Feature

    Quarter, Day, and Print drilldowns

    New routes /quarter/:n, /week/:n/day/:d, and /week/:n/print let teachers and parents drill from the year all the way to a single day, or grab a print-ready week packet in one click.

    Feature

    Supplements library

    Decodable passages (ELA), two-step word problems (Math), weather logs (Science), and community-map activities (Social) — each with teacher and student print variants.

    Feature

    State Adaptations and Rubrics

    New State Standards page maps the curriculum onto every supported state framework. The D/A/P/E rubrics are collected in one place on Assessments & Rubrics.

    Improvement

    Meadow-green refresh

    Updated the visual identity to a meadow-green primary token (oklch(0.65 0.17 145)) with Fraunces + Inter typography.

    Improvement

    Per-route SEO + real 404
