When your child needs additional support with math, it is easy to become overwhelmed with the sheer volume of resources available online.
From games to flashcards, workbooks, and computer programs, the possibilities are endless to help your child refine their skills and excel at school.
But, unless you have the money and time available to purchase different activities to reinforce different concepts, you will find that many resources available will not satisfy the need in your home for quality math practice.
Go Math Grade 2 and ArgoPrep Grade 2 workbooks are designed with students and parents in mind.
Combining effective practice with accessible delivery, these workbooks are bound to engage your child and help them develop their math skills.
When seeking supplemental materials for your child, there are probably numerous things you are looking for: Is it easy to use?
How long will it take? How much does it cost? Is it going to help/challenge my child?
Asking these questions is an amazing first step, but many products will not be Common Core standards-aligned and provide holistic practice.
Go Math and ArgoPrep workbooks guarantee relevant practice that is sensitive to the busy lives of a family. They are also cost-effective, making it an ideal resource for all children.
So what happens if your child only has a block of 45 minutes in school each day?
Larson argues that a 15-minute deficiency each day could equal a 60-day loss over a 180-day school year. That 30% loss will be reflected as your student progresses during their academic career, but most notably, you will begin to see the lack of time and their ability to understand the content being taught on a day-to-day basis!
Taking that statistic one step further, this loss could equate to over a year of lost math practice time during their elementary years alone! Imagine your child entering into 9th grade, but their middle school stopped teaching at 7th grade, as a parent you’d be outraged!
Of course, most teachers hold themselves to an incredibly high standard, striving to provide enriching and quality instruction with the time they can for each content area.
It’s not up to the parent to provide the instruction, but it is up to parents and caregivers to support and reinforce these concepts at home.
This is where workbooks such as Go Math Grade 2 and ArgoPrep Grade 2 come in handy. These workbooks have taken the guesswork out of supplemental materials.
They are research-based, standard aligned, quality materials designed to reinforce relevant concepts through daily practice.
There are a variety of roadblocks students encounter in 2nd-grade math. Some of the most common concerns include: reading word problems, determining which operation to use, and not being able to pick up on clue words.

15 minutes a day keeps your child’s brain sharp!
If your child is struggling with reading, they will obviously have a difficult time with word problems as well. Since they’re struggling with word problems, then they’ll likely have a hard time working picking out the clue words.
If they can’t pick out the clue words, then they’ll definitely not be able to determine the correct operation to use! It’s a vicious cycle and with the rate in which teachers must progress through lessons and daily activities, your child may not be getting the individualized attention that they desperately need to improve in math.
Being able to pinpoint the sticky points for your child will better help you understand how to specifically support their learning.
Once you can support them at home, their growth will take off! There is nothing more exciting than watching your child refine a new skill and apply it correctly.
Both Go Math Grade 2 and ArgoPrep follow similar formats for skill practice. Broken up into units and lessons, Go Math Grade 2 units span over a few weeks.
The overview page explains the concepts of the unit and gives an example of how to solve the type of problem present in the lessons.
It provides a short vocabulary list with a definition. This information is delivered in both English on one side and Spanish on the other, making it accessible and usable by many parents.
ArgoPrep’s workbook is broken up into weeks, scaffolding (that’s teacher talk for increasing difficulty) the concepts as the weeks progress.
A link to a video lesson accompanies each week, meaning that parents who are trying to help their kids have real-time, quick instruction through video whenever they need it!
Each week also features a short, one-sentence summary of the skills being worked on that week.
Each book features a mix of standard problems and word problems, exposing students to a variety of mathematical equations.
Go Math grade 2 features one page of “Extra Practice” at the end of the unit. ArgoPrep uses day five for an assessment and provides an extra day (day six) for a challenge question.
Critical thinking will be developed through the development of these four foundational skills.
There are approximately 10 subcategories to these four foundations and eight mathematical practices, making 2nd grade a big year for growth and development!
There are numerous factors to take into account when selecting a supplemental workbook, but quality and completeness should never be sacrificed.
Go Math! Grade 2 and ArgoPrep are both excellent resources for reinforcing these concepts at home.
In fact, in a side-by-side comparison, their differences are nearly unnoticeable!
ArgoPrep excels at providing quality supplemental instruction without taking too much time away from day-to-day life.
In as little as 15 minutes per day, your 2nd grader will be able to complete their daily work and solidify skills for their grade level in the process!
Clear problems and explanations make ArgoPrep the choice workbook amongst teachers and parents.
All content within the workbook is standard aligned and relevant to what your child is learning in school.
If there are any questions about any of the problems in the workbook, ArgoPrep has you covered with their online video explanations of every problem within the workbook (a unique feature to ArgoPrep).
You and your child can walk through all of the problems easily and with their video instruction and answer keys, you will know immediately if the answers are correct!
ArgoPrep has received many prestigious awards for their workbooks and online program.
These awards include: Mom’s Choice Award, 2019 Seal of Approval from Homeschool.com, 2019 National Parenting Products Award, Gold Medal Parent’s Choice Award, and the Brain Child award. If you are looking for the best workbooks to help your child boost their math or ELA scores, you have come to the right place!
When seeking additional support for your child, it can be hard not to get wrapped up into all of the options on the market.
There is something for everyone and after a couple of months, you may find yourself drowning in games, flashcards, plastic toys, all claiming to be the solution to a math dilemma.
The worst part is: your child may not even be playing with all of those resources anymore! When seeking quality and predictable material look no further than the support that Go Math! Grade 2 and ArgoPrep Grade 2 workbooks provide. If you haven’t already done so, be sure to check out ArgoPrep’s award-winning K-8 math & ELA online program
