Your child is deeply in their feelings!
This year finds your child experiencing a constant fluctuation between opposites. Their emotions fuel their opinions and ideas, and these emotions can swing from one end of the spectrum to the other with lightning speed. You may notice this with friend dynamics that are constantly changing. However, Daily Wonder is happy to announce that your child is progressing right on schedule! Our philosophy; take a deep breath, and make space for your child's opinions. However, when they express their views in unkind ways that need refining, use redirection. As parents, we are always walking the fine line between making space for our child's experiences and expressions and guiding and redirecting behaviours that are not acceptable.
Grade 2 curriculum offers story themes of the Heroes of our world and a path to aspire towards and the animal fables, which offer a spectrum of examples of human characteristics from which your child can learn.
