RightStart Math for Grade 2

RightStart Math builds Grade 2 number sense through the AL Abacus, visualization, and math games rather than rote worksheets.

How RightStart Math teaches Grade 2 math

In Grade 2, RightStart approaches addition, subtraction, mental math, place value, multiplication, and geometry by helping students see quantities in groups of five and ten on the AL Abacus. Children visualize numbers and basic operations on the abacus and through games, building strong mental-math foundations from the start. Because so much practice is game-based, fluency develops without the drudgery of repetitive worksheets.

Grade 2 focus: Addition and subtraction within 100, intro to multiplication, money, and bar models.
