Year 2 Maths
Autumn
In Maths we will start the term leaning about place value. We will partition 2 digit numbers into tens and ones and understand the value of them. We will order and compare 2 digit numbers and place them on a number line. We will learn how to count in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s. We will use our place value knowledge to add and subtract numbers to a 100 using a number line. We will use the properties of 2D and 3D shapes to recognise and describe them. We will identify lines of symmetry on the shapes and begin to recognise patterns and sequences.
Spring
We will learn to recognise the different coins that we use and know the value of them. We will make totals using different combinations of coins and solve problems involving money. We will use addition to make totals using coins and use subtraction to calculate change. We will practise our 2x, 5x and 10x tables. We will use arrays and number lines to multiply numbers in the 2x, 5x and 10x tables. We will explore the concept of division using groups and use times tables facts to divide using a number line. Children will be taught how to tell the time, this includes o'clock, half past, quarter past and quarter to. We will also learn how to tell the time to the nearest 5 minutes. We will introduce fractions and children will learn to recognise fractions and find fractions in a group of objects or an amount. We will continue to practise times tables to include 2s, 5s, 10s, and 3's.
Summer
This term we will learn about statistics. We will make tally charts and draw and interpret pictograms. We will draw our own block diagrams using tally charts and ask and answer questions about them. During this term we will learn about position and direction. The children will become familiar with and use mathematical vocabulary related to position and direction. They will know how to make whole turns, quarter turns, half turns and three quarter turns. They will learn about clockwise and anti-clockwise. We also have a Measures topic and the children will learn about length, height, mass, capacity and temperature. They will learn about the units of measure for each one.
