Math

Grade 2 at a Glance:

Using mathematics to solve problems. Your child will count, describe and estimate quantities to 100 in a variety of ways. They will understand and apply strategies for addition facts up to and including 9 + 9 and related subtraction facts, recall addition facts up to and including 5 + 5 and related subtraction facts, and add and subtract numbers to 100. Your child will solve problems using numbers, patterns, measurement and data collection, and use graphs and charts to communicate information.

Number sense

We have used base 10 blocks to learn regrouping

We have tried different methods to do double digit addition without regrouping!

Patterns and Relations

Mathematics is about recognizing, describing and working with numerical and non-numerical patterns. Patterns may be represented in concrete, visual or symbolic form. Students should develop fluency in moving from one representation to another. Students must learn to recognize, extend, create and use mathematical patterns. Learning to work with patterns in the early grades helps students develop algebraic thinking, which is foundational for working with more abstract mathematics in higher grades.

Shape and Space

Spatial sense involves visualization, mental imagery and spatial reasoning. These skills are central to the understanding of mathematics. Spatial sense is developed through a variety of experiences and interactions within the environment. The development of spatial sense enables students to solve problems involving 3-D objects and 2-D shapes and to interpret and reflect on the physical environment and its 3-D or 2-D representations.

Statistics and Probability

Students will learn to display and analyze data to solve problems. These skills involves gathering and recording data about self and others to answer questions. Students will construct and interpret concrete graphs and pictographs to solve problems.
