A Sample Second Grade Schedule
- July 12, 2019
- No Comments
Are you looking for a sample second-grade schedule? After posting about my guided reading groups, I had a few readers reach out to me and ask me the same question: “What is your daily schedule like?” They wanted to know if I used Words Their Way, taught shared reading, and if I had morning meetings.
Sample 2nd Grade Schedule of Instructional Minutes
Instructional Day: 9:05-3:15
(The students enter our classroom at 8:55, the first bell is at 9:05. The expectation is that homework check-in, breakfast, attendance, the pledge is all done before 9:05)
9:05-9:25 – Morning Meeting (20 mins)
Explicit Social-Emotional Learning
- Morning meeting must include all 4 components: greeting, sharing, activity, and morning message

10:25-10:50- What I Need (W.I.N)

2:45-3:00 Teacher Taught Physical Education (T.T.P.E) This is only on days when we don’t have PE. Our students have gym class twice a week.
3:00-3:15 Closing Circle (Component to Responsive Classroom)
- 10 minutes debrief/ celebrations
- 5 minutes dismissal
So that’s it! My daily schedule! Now, I will be the first one to admit that this looks great on paper. However, after teaching for 16 years, I know that this is subject to change due to a plethora of holidays, assemblies, RTI/IEP meetings, safety drills, book fair, professional development/conferences, the list go on. It may be that my book clubs had superb discussions and I wanted to let them continue for an extra ten minutes. I always celebrate when I have one full week without any interruption to the daily schedule because there is always so much going on! So, I take this schedule that my team and I follow with a grain of salt.
Creating a daily schedule can be stressful at times, especially when we have to stray from it. However, as you know, teachers always have to be flexible. What similarities do you see with your schedule? Do we have anything in common? If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to email me or drop me a comment below.
