My name is Michelle Myslinski. My students call me Ms. M and I teach 2^nd grade. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York and have been in Vegas for 6 years.

I look forward to sharing my knowledge and experiences with students for many years to come.

Second grade forms the second layer of the foundation of a child’s primary education. In Math, they are introduced to larger numbers (building upon what was taught to them in the first grade) and fundamental operations such as addition and subtraction. In second grade they also learn measurements of time, length, distance, and weight along with additional basic concepts of geometry. For English Language Arts, they are introduced to basic grammar skills and cursive writing. There is a big focus on comprehension. In Science, they explore basic earth and space, along with planets and the weather system. Social Studies provides a basic understanding of the government and current events. They will also have a basic understanding of American history and are taught about some noteworthy American Presidents. The subject of Geography includes learning about the different continents, oceans, and countries across the world.

In my second-grade classroom, games are used to aid in comprehension of subject matter making learning fun and hands-on. Learning should be fun and I work hard to ensure each child meets their highest level of success.
