In second grade teachers are helping students grow socially as well as academically. At seven years old, a child is continuing to learn about herself and others. Parents can help by encouraging her as she:

  • Develops a concept of herself.
  • Begins to understand others.
  • Gains respect for others.
  • Builds relationships with others.
  • Develops a sense of responsibility.
