Why would one attempt to? But, I suppose it depends how intelligent the second grader is.
Take a light bulb - this consists of the bulb, it in turn gives off light and it gives off heat. (The commonality is energy.
too hard?)
Computers - hardware + (software + programming) + application.
or
what is = Information + matter + form
My 5 year old can handle this but he is rather special.
A Book = paper + ink + words
God = God + the spirit + the Son
Of course your equation is wrong it really is
1 x 1 x 1 = 1
simple really.

Well... I understood that when I was younger than second grade, so yeah... You have to explain it in their terms though. Instead of 1+1+1=1, you tell them that there are three sides to God, make like a triangular tube shaped thing, put Holy Spirit on one side, God on another, and Jesus on the last, and tell them that God is three, but they are all on the same piece of paper, so to speak, and thus is really one of three parts.

Bcuz then they are going to say "it is a secret." Or "God works in mysterious approaches" Or "our puny human minds can no longer comprehend it" however the fact of it is, they don't comprehend what they worship. Jehovah God isn't an unknowable, hidden God. Babylon the large is the secret. There, ppl; it is the fact of it. like it or no longer. settle for it or do no longer. the alternative is yours. the fact is the fact. Jehovah has His Witnesses out knocking on doorways, coming to YOU. So, what I merely stated: Jehovah isn't an unknowable, hidden God, has its own evidence. To testify to that fact, is the fact that the Witnesses are in fact & certainly accessible, coming to YOU. So, he's 'Knowable & no longer Hidden.'

See what comes out:
1+1+1=3 (raised to power 0)=1
Meaning this idea is nothing by false and result comes only when raised to power 0.

I was smart enough to understand the Trinity concept in the second grade. But your math problem indicates that you are not.
:-(
EDITED TO ADD:
In my school, we were memorizing the times tables in the second grade (we would sing them, like a rythmic chant), and doing multiplication problems in class. So my dear, you are wrong about them not understanding times tables. But I'm sure you meant to say that NOT ALL OF THEM understand the times tables.
good luck to you...

not all things are made of just ONE thing!do u know muslims said that it is impossible to have 3 gods cause they say like:"what about if the first god want the earth to be square,then the second said it has to be triangular.then,the third said that humans shouldn't live on earth,i want them to live at mars!"BUT,anything could happen right?if they are gods,of course they will not be so stupid to fight!they can divide their jobs!okay,so you want it to be squre?fine,i'll make my own earth.can you prove to me that there isn't a SQUARE earth in the universe?have you really checked every corner,nooks and crannies in the universe,huh?even a caveman can think of that!

I can try to explain it in terms they can understand... without needing to go into depth... that can come later with better and fuller understanding on their part... but here goes....
Me: What do you call your father?
Child: Daddy
Me: That's great! So he's your Daddy, right?
Child:
Me: Alright then! Do you have a mommy?
Child:
Me: Yes, you do! So, you're daddy is what is called a husband to your mommy.
Child:
Me: Does your daddy have a mommy and daddy?
Child:
Me: I think your daddy does have a mommy and daddy of his own, and they are your grandma and grandpa.
Chilld:
Me: YES! That would be Nana and PopPop, then! So, your daddy is their son.
Child:
Me: So, your daddy is a lot of different kinds of people... he's your daddy... he's a husband... and he's a son.
Child:
Me: Is your daddy three different people or ONE person?
Child: One?
Me: That's RIIIIIIIGGGGHHTT!! WOW!!! You are SO smart!
Child:
Me: Now, you asked about God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Now, think about how your daddy is just one person, but he is like three different people, okay?
Child: Okay.
Me: Great! Now.... God is one being, but he is a Father, just like your daddy is your father.
Child:
Me: God is also a Son, and his name is Jesus, just like your daddy is a son to your Nana and PopPop.
Child:
Me: ALRIGHT!!! Well, God is also a Holy Spirit. Now, that's a little different from your daddy, but it's kinda like just being a different "part" of being God. Your daddy is also a brother, because your Uncle Joe is your daddy's brother, right?
Child:
Me: And your daddy is also a grandson, but you never met his nana and poppop, they died before you were born. Well... anyway... Your daddy is like he's many different people, but he's only ONE person. God is kinda like that, too. He's a Father, he's a Son, and he's a Holy Spirit. Does that help you understand?
Child:
There you go!
Have a blessed day!

Good luck with your question, but someone one feels like one is banging one's head against a brick wall on this forum. I have found that fundamentalists generally will not make any great effort to explain their position, but will just tell you you are a hellbound sinner. Check out my most recent question for proof!

Actually my second-grader understands this quite nicely thank you.
When I asked her to explain to me how could God be three in one, she put her hands on her hips and said, "Daddy, they're different but they're the same, silly!"
Smarter than most of the boneheads I see on here day after day.
