This current academic year, our curriculum has been revised, and compacted as our provincial curriculum goes under review and updating. We now "frontload" the most critical 15 outcomes in numeracy during the front half of the year. Other outcomes in statistics, measurement, and geometry have been shuffled to the latter part of the year as they are shorter, more flexible, and designed to be more conducive for concept introduction that is later scaffolded for deeper understanding and practice in other grade levels.
Gr. 2 Foundational Learning Outcomes for Math
Foundational Learnings (FLs) are specific outcomes that are taught early and throughout the remainder of the year, reviewed and assessed consistently, and expected to be mastered for developmental progress to meet grade level requirements by the end of the year. They are the "building blocks" for math literacy success if you will. Feel free to review the outcomes below so that you have an understanding of what kind of numeracy skills we will be working on throughout this year. They may help you make connections with activities your child can practice at home to assist in developing appropriate age-level numerical literacy.
*Each grade level from K-9 has a series of these foundational outcomes
Other specific outcomes will also be introduced throughout the year in addition to the foundational learnings and will be shared and highlighted each month with some suggested support activities and links.
