FL 2nd Grade Science Curriculum
Give your child the support they need to keep up with Florida's 2nd grade science class. Lessons and practice problems follow what local schools teach, from animal diversity to weather and energy.
About 2nd Grade Florida science
Florida follows the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards (NGSSS) for science, organized around life science, physical science, and earth science strands. In 2nd grade, students explore growth patterns, reproduction, animal and plant diversity, states of matter, physical changes, forces, movement, water systems, weather, and forms of energy. StudyPug provides video lessons, practice problems, and step-by-step explanations covering every one of these strands so your child can review at their own pace.
- Strands covered: life science (growth, reproduction, animal and plant diversity), physical science (matter, forces, movement, energy), and earth science (water systems, weather)
- Video lessons for every 2nd grade Florida science topic
- Practice problems and step-by-step explanations aligned to Florida NGSSS
- Smart recommendations and parent assignments to track progress
