Elementary Mathematics Grade 2

Description

In Math Grade Two, students develop their skills in solving one- and two-step word problems using addition and subtraction within 100. The course emphasizes continued growth in understanding place value, focusing on hundreds, tens, and ones. This foundational knowledge supports students as they learn to add and subtract within 1,000 using a variety of strategies. Additional key areas of study include classifying two-dimensional shapes, recognizing lines of symmetry, and applying mathematical concepts to money, time, measurement, perimeter, and graphing data.

Segment One 

  • Adding within 100 using strategies 
  • Subtracting within 100 using strategies 
  • Adding two-digit numbers with regrouping 
  • Subtracting two-digit numbers with regrouping 
  • Using addition and subtraction to solve one- and two-step word problems 
  • Reading and writing numbers within 1,000 
  • Rounding two-digit numbers to the nearest 10 
  • Comparing and ordering numbers within 1,000 
  • Composing and decomposing numbers within 1,000 
  • Telling time to the nearest five minutes and quarter hour 
  • Using money to solve one- and two-step word problems 
  • Using arrays and repeated addition to find a total 

Segment Two 

  • Adding within 1,000 
  • Subtracting within 1,000 
  • Using measurement to solve one- and two-step word problems 
  • Estimating lengths 
  • Comparing lengths 
  • Measuring lengths 
  • Finding perimeter with and without unit segments 
  • Drawing polygons 
  • Categorizing polygons 
  • Identifying a line of symmetry 
  • Partitioning circles and rectangles 
  • Representing data using tables and graphs 

Students will need the following materials: printer, cell phone or scanner, headset or earbuds, notebook, pen, pencils, erasers, scissors, coloring materials (markers, crayons, colored pencils), glue, tape, stapler, centimeter and inch ruler, printer paper, lined paper, colored paper, and general household objects for activities. 

Besides engaging students in challenging curriculum, the course guides students to reflect on their learning and evaluate their progress through a variety of assessments. Assessments can be in the form of practice lessons, multiple-choice questions, writing assignments, projects, oral assessments, and discussions. Core courses will use the state-approved grading scale and Special Area courses will use an S or U grading scale.

To achieve success, students are expected to submit work in each course weekly. Students can learn at their own pace; however, “any pace” still means that students must make progress in the course every week. To measure learning, students complete self-checks, practice lessons, multiple choice questions, projects, discussion-based assessments, and discussions. Students are expected to maintain regular contact with teachers; the minimum requirement is monthly. When teachers, students, and parents work together, students are successful.
