If your children have been learning Grade 2 sight words and you’re wanting to assess how many words they have retained and can recognise more easily with confidence, then these fun worksheets are ideal. Consolidating all Dolch sight words for second Grade, these engaging activities have been designed around a Valentines theme. There are 3 different activities with 3 worksheets for each type so you can pick and choose to suit the needs of your learners.
Activity 1 asks learners to turn a heart card over, read the word then find all of the same words on their worksheet and color them the same as the heart card. Be careful though as some words have been deliberately misspelled.
Activity 2 asks learners to read the word in the heart then color all of the letter hearts that make up that word. Students then need to write their own sentence using that word.
Activity 3 allows learners to read the sight words in context within a sentence in different hearts. The sight word is underlined. If it has been spelled correctly, students can color the heart. If the word underlined is misspelled then they must leave it blank.
Each of the activities allows students to recognize, build, read and write about second grade sight words to improve their confidence and all important reading skills to help them become confident readers.
These worksheets are in black and white with the exception of the heart cards. However, you could use colored heart shapes or wooden heart shapes with your own colored writing to suit your classroom environment should you wish.

Learning about fractions can be a tricky concept for students, especially if they aren’t secure with multiplication and division facts. These fraction task cards are designed to support learners in finding unit fractions of amounts and then progressing to non unit fractions of amounts, using concrete materials to help with calculations.
There are 9 coloured and 9 black and white A4 task cards to download (pdf) giving you the freedom to laminate and create math centers or use individually for work books and working walls. The fraction cards do from ½ up to 10/10 There are also 30 amount cards and a directions card in the lack.
Using a range of everyday classroom objects such as, cubes, buttons, counters, Pom poms, Lego bricks etc, children gather the materials to match the amount on their card. They then split them equally according to the denominator on their task card. Once they’ve completed this, they will then be able to recognise, count and calculate non unit fractions of the amount. This is a great way to support learners who are still struggling with multiplication and division tasks.
One way I’d use these in my classroom is to then take photographs of the completed task cards to create a valuable and meaningful fraction working wall.

Are you looking for fun resources with repeated addition and multiplication equations for your second grade learners? These quality arrays task cards focus on the 2x, 5x, 10x, 3x and 4x multiplication tables and representations as arrays. They are ideal for both the US and UK Math Curriculum to cover expected standards.
Children can often struggle with the concept and need plenty of practice. There are 20 no prep activity cards prompting students to look at each array and identify the matching repeated addition equation and multiplication equation that describes the array. Learners can then clip the answers on each card with pegs or paper clips for interventions, small group work and math centers, or they can record both equations in their notebook so they can see how repeated addition and multiplications can represent the same value.
The best thing is, once completed, students can use the included answer cards to peer or self assess answers, identifying misconceptions or receiving instant praise, knowing they’ve secured their knowledge and understanding.
There are 4 cards per A4 page (pdf download). For extra durability I’d suggest printing into card stock then laminating so they can be used as often as needed. They would be great for classroom and homeschool math lessons as centers, support and interventions.
Whilst these have been designed with second grade learners in mind, there’s scope to include them in 3rd and 4th grade too depending on prior learning and need for understanding. This would equate to Y3 and Y4 UK curriculum.
Save yourself valuable time and use these no prep cards as part of your math lessons.
Help your youngsters secure their knowledge and understanding of the 3 times tables through exploration, using these fun, high quality, math task cards. There are 2 separate sets of pdf task cards available to download, one focusing on the use of everyday concrete objects and the other on pictorial representations. Both sets of cards encourage the use of repeated addition and multiplication equations to develop understanding and show findings in mathematical written form.
Set A cards are designed for learners who need/ enjoy showing math concepts in a practical way, for example showing 4 groups of 3 with socks and pegs or multilink towers. Children need to show the representation through making, placing or building, then write on the laminated cards a repeated addition and a multiplication equation for it. There are 12 cards in this set from 1x3 up to 12x3. They offers versatility as students can show practically and photograph as evidence or for use on a math working wall or bulletin board. They can use a dry wipe pen to write the equations on each card or they could copy and complete the equations in their workbook once the practical task has been completed.
Set B cards focus on pictorial representations, where students use the visual prompt to then write a repeated addition and multiplication equation in their workbook. Once learners are confident with this stage, they should then find abstract representations, reasoning and problem solving easier so they can apply their knowledge and understanding with a greater degree of confidence.
These task cards vary in size. Set A cards are approximately A5 in size, whereas Set B cards are approximately A6 in size. Set B requires no further prep once they’re printed and laminated. Simply use as often as needed on math centers, interventions, small group work or early finishing tasks.
Set A will require a little prep but the concrete materials needed are popular everyday objects, with picture clues as to what is needed in order to complete each task. Both sets of task cards include an answer card to encourage peer and self assessment opportunities, as well as teacher assessment.
You will receive a link to download your materials due to the file size. Then you can print as many copies as you need and use with your 2nd, 3rd and 4th Grade learners in the classroom or homeschool environment

There’s also an answer sheet provided to encourage self or peer assessment, or it can be used as a quick reference guide to speed up teacher marking.
The task cards would be ideal for 2nd Grade math centers, small group work or even interventions/challenges for 2nd or 3rd grade children. They would also be suited for homeschooling, ensuring that learners access problems at the expected level or grade.
