 Second Grade at Peete Elementary is quite a turning point for students.  It is this year that students are introduced to formal testing.  Tests are designed by the district to very closely resemble the TAKS test but on an appropriate skill level.  This test is graded using a numeric system.  Math is tested each six weeks while Reading is tested in December and April.

The students must be well prepared before the testing date.  We strive to see that all students are working on or above level through the use of many different teaching styles which will ensure that mastery is accomplished.  Different teaching approaches are incorporated into the student's learning opportunities.  We use Guided Reading and Literacy groups, Accelerated Reading, TAKS Target, Mountain Language, Grace Stasney Math Problem Solving and skill related center activities to help students master targeted objectives.  

The second grade teachers, parents and students work together hand-in-hand to achieve our goals.
