This work sample demonstrates evidence of student learning in relation to aspects of the achievement standards for Year 2 Mathematics. The primary purpose for the work sample is to demonstrate the standard, so the focus is on what is evident in the sample not how it was created. The sample is an authentic representation ...
Students compare and order several shapes and objects based on length, area, volume and capacity using appropriate uniform informal units.
Students identify a variety of three-sided shapes and describe the features of all triangles.
Students interpret simple maps and identify the relative positions of key features.
Students identify a variety of four-sided shapes and describe the features of squares, rectangles, rhombuses and kites.
A guide to teaching about measurement including indirect measuring, and estimating.
This comprehensive resource describes the progression of geometric reasoning. The resource demonstrates examples of relevant teaching strategies, investigations, activity plans and connected concepts in geometry including teaching and cultural implications.
This guide supports teachers to develop students’ geometric understandings.
Use this task to assess students’ knowledge and understanding of properties of shapes, and language they use when describing common features.
This comprehensive resource describes the progression of measurement ideas. The resource demonstrates examples of relevant teaching strategies, investigations, activity plans and connected concepts in measurement including teaching and cultural implications.
Refer to the diagnostic task for a guide on how to conduct a one-on-one interview where the student is asked to measure length by choosing an informal unit.
Use this task to assess language the student uses to describe position, direction and pathways in familiar environments.
The content of this book is organised into topics including understanding units, and direct measuring.
Use this diagnostic task to assess if students know about capacity and comparing containers based on how much they hold.
Play a skip counting game where students program the Bee-Bot to stop at multiples of a set number, eg 2, 4, 5, 10 on a number grid.
This planning resource for Year 2 is for the topic of Informal units. Students extend their understanding of uniform informal units to measure and compare the lengths, mass and capacities.
This planning resource for Year 2 is for the topic of Shapes and objects. Students develop their reasoning when comparing and classifying shapes by their attributes. They develop the spatial language to describe shapes.
This planning resource for Year 2 is for the topic of Position and location. Students interpret simple maps to describe directions from an object relative to another, using positional and directional language.
This planning resource for Year 2 is for the topic of Measures of turn (angles). Students develop their understanding of an angle as a measure of turn.
Watch this video to learn about the features of 2D shapes. How is it different from the features of 3D shapes (solids)? Some examples of solids that incorporate 2D shapes are mentioned in this video by Sanchit - for example, a cube has six square faces. What other 3D shapes could you make that has at least one square face?
