Class 2 Mathematics
This course builds a strong foundation in number sense and spatial reasoning through concrete experiences. Students transition from counting to understanding place value, basic operations, and the geometry of their everyday environment.
The World of Numbers
Students explore two digit numbers, focusing on the concept of place value and the relative magnitude of numbers up to 100.
An introduction to the base ten system using grouping strategies and concrete manipulatives like beads and sticks.
Developing a sense of number magnitude by comparing quantities and placing them on a number line.
Identifying numerical patterns in the hundred chart to build mental math agility.
Adding and Subtracting Stories
Moving beyond rote calculation to understand addition and subtraction as combining, separating, and comparing sets.
Using real life scenarios to model addition and subtraction and understanding their inverse relationship.
Developing flexible strategies like doubling, near doubles, and making tens for faster calculation.
A conceptual introduction to carrying and borrowing by exchanging tens and ones.
Shapes and Space
Exploring the properties of 2D and 3D shapes and understanding spatial orientation in the physical world.
Distinguishing between two dimensional shapes and three dimensional objects through tactile exploration.
Identifying straight, curved, horizontal, and vertical lines in the environment and in drawings.
Understanding how objects look from different perspectives like top, side, and front views.
Measuring My World
Using non standard and standard units to quantify length, weight, and capacity.
Comparing lengths using body parts and moving toward the need for uniform measuring tools.
Using a simple balance scale to compare the heaviness of different objects.
Exploring how much liquid a container can hold through pouring and filling activities.
Time and Money
Understanding the passage of time through calendars and clocks, and the value of currency in daily transactions.
Sequencing events using days of the week, months of the year, and seasonal cycles.
Reading the clock face to the hour and half hour and understanding daily routines.
Identifying currency notes and coins and practicing simple shopping exchanges.
Data and Patterns
Collecting information, organizing it visually, and identifying repeating structures in numbers and nature.
Gathering data from classmates and recording it using tally marks or simple lists.
Representing data through pictographs to easily compare different categories.
Identifying, extending, and creating patterns using shapes, colors, and sounds.
