Students work to develop their level of understanding within these broad topics.  · Recognising, ordering and recording numbers to 999. · Counting forwards and backwards to 999 by 1s, 10s and 100s. · Counting to 100 by 2s, 4s, and 5s. · Automatically recalling addition and subtraction facts to 20. · Using materials to model and solve addition, subtraction, multiplication and division problems. · Writing number sentences vertically and horizontally using + and -. · Applying skills to solve story problems involving number. · Understanding and recording simple fractions ½ and ¼. · Reading, recording and ordering money amounts and dealing with simple change situations. · Recognising odd and even numbers. · Recognising patterns in the whole number system.  **Space** The area of Space is usually a fun area of study and students should enjoy participating in the following activities.  · Drawing and describing 2D and 3D mathematical shapes. · Developing an understanding of relationships between two and three dimensional shapes. · Drawing and locating positions and directions on basic maps. · Following and giving simple direction using language of position. · Making symmetrical pictures.  Students in Year Two will begin to explore the area of Measurement, building from informal to formal units of measurement. This is often an activity based area of study.  · Using informal and formal units to measure and compare everyday objects. · Estimating, comparing and ordering length, mass, capacity and area. · Recognising o’clock and half past on an analogue clock. · Recognising hours and minutes on a digital clock. · Classifying events as possible, impossible, likely, unlikely and certain. · Discussing, interpreting and comparing graph results. · Posing questions of interest arising from familiar situations or from collected information. · Collecting and classifying data. · Recording, representing and summarising data in lists and simple graphs.  **Working Mathematically** An important part of the study of Mathematics is the development of an understanding of why we are doing what we are doing. This area of study enables students to explore and articulate their mathematical thinking.  · Using a calculator to check mathematical equations. · Detecting and checking errors in mathematical activities. · Explaining reasons for choice during mathematical activities.
