Maths for 2nd Class

Re-anchor tens and units to 99 and make renaming the big idea: ten units trade for one ten, a ten breaks back into ten units, one number can be built many ways. Pupils compare, order, find ten more and ten less, and place numbers on an empty number line.

1. 1 Tens and Units to 99, Re-anchor
2. 2 The Hundred Square, Every Number Has an Address
3. 3 Renaming, Ten Units Become One Ten
4. 4 Renaming Back, One Ten Breaks Into Ten Units
5. 5 One Number, Many Builds
6. 6 Comparing Numbers, Tens First
7. 7 Ordering Numbers Within 99
8. 8 Ten More, Ten Less, One Row on the Hundred Square
9. 9 Placing Numbers on the Empty Number Line
10. 10 Place-value Round-up

From secure facts within 20 to two-digit addition within 99, finishing at renaming. Pupils build a toolkit of strategies and end by choosing the right strategy for a story sum, with the meaning of plus, equals and a missing part voiced throughout.

1. 11 Addition Facts We Own, Bonds to 10 and Counting on
2. 12 Doubles and Near-doubles
3. 13 Make Ten to Cross Over

14. 24 Addition Round-up

From secure subtraction facts within 20 to two-digit subtraction within 99, finishing at renaming. Pupils meet subtraction's two faces, take-away and difference, count up across a small gap, and use fact families to check any answer.

1. 25 Subtraction Facts We Own, Take Away Within 20
2. 26 Fact Families, Four Sentences, One Story
3. 27 Back Through Ten
4. 28 Taking Away Units, Tens Untouched

11. 35 Story Subtractions, Take Away or Difference?
12. 36 Subtraction Round-up

The hundred square ends at 100 and the counting does not. Pupils trade ten tens for one hundred, meet the hundreds column, and learn to count past 100, then read, write, build, partition, compare and place numbers to 199.

1. 37 One Hundred, Ten Tens Trade up
2. 38 Counting Past One Hundred
3. 39 Reading and Writing Numbers to 199
4. 40 Building Numbers, Hundreds, Tens and Units

6. 42 Comparing and Ordering to 199
7. 43 The Empty Line Past 100, New Benchmarks
8. 44 Hundreds-door Round-up

Patterns get rules and number sentences get meaning. Pupils name the unit of a repeating pattern, grow and shrink shape patterns, read skip-count sequences and say their rules, then treat the equals sign as a balance and hunt missing numbers within 20.

1. 45 Repeating Patterns, Find the Unit
2. 46 Growing Patterns, the Staircase
3. 47 Shrinking Patterns, Down the Stairs
4. 48 Number Sequences, 2s, 5s and 10s on the Hundred Square

8. 52 Missing Numbers, the Empty Box
9. 53 Missing Numbers in Take-away Sentences
10. 54 Algebra Round-up, Rules and Balances Together

Fair shares grow into named fractions. Pupils re-anchor the half, meet the quarter, learn to write one-half and one-quarter, and discover the block's big equivalence, that two quarters make one half. Halving and quartering small amounts turns the idea into a tool for sharing.

1. 55 Halves, Fair Shares, Two Equal Parts
2. 56 Half of an Amount, Halving a Set
3. 57 Writing One Half, the Fraction One Over Two
4. 58 Quarters, Four Equal Parts
5. 59 A Quarter of an Amount, Quartering a Set
6. 60 Writing One Quarter, the Fraction One Over Four
7. 61 Two Quarters Make One Half
8. 62 Three Quarters and the Whole
9. 63 Halves and Quarters of Amounts, Sharing for Real
10. 64 Fractions Round-up

Pupils examine and sort 2-D and 3-D shapes by their properties, then set shapes moving: folding to find lines of symmetry, sliding, flipping and turning, and completing symmetrical pictures. The block closes on location, describing position and reading a simple grid.

1. 65 2-D Shapes, Sides and Corners
2. 66 More 2-D Shapes, Pentagons, Hexagons and Ovals
3. 67 Sorting 2-D Shapes Two Ways
4. 68 3-D Shapes, Faces and Corners

9. 73 Making Symmetrical Pictures, Complete the Other Half
10. 74 Slides, Flips and Turns, Moving a Shape
11. 75 Turns, Quarter Turns and Half Turns
12. 76 Position and Direction, Saying Where
13. 77 A Simple Grid, Every Square Has an Address
14. 78 Shape and Space Round-up

Pupils move from comparing directly to measuring with fair, standard units, and meet the estimate-then-measure habit that runs through every one. A first gentle look at area by covering with square tiles closes the measuring picture. The ruler joins the desk kit for this block.

1. 79 Comparing and Ordering Length
2. 80 Why We Need a Fair Unit, the Centimetre
3. 81 Measuring in Centimetres with a Ruler

Pupils extend clock reading past o'clock and half past to the quarter hours, then meet the calendar as a grid where each row is a week and each column a day, learning to find and order dates and count how many days something lasts.

Money puts numbers to work in the class shop and the club stall. Pupils meet every coin from 1c to the two-euro coin, learn one euro is a hundred cent, build amounts many ways, total a mixed purse, write euro and cent together, add prices within two euro, and find change by counting up.

1. 101 Meet All Our Coins, 1c to Two Euro

Data lets the class answer its own questions with evidence, carried from a good question to a chart that gives the answer. Pupils pose a tidy question, tally and total, then show the data three ways, reading and comparing the charts to close Stage 2 data.
