Year 2
We've Got the Curriculum Covered
At TutorExel, our Year 2 Maths program builds a strong foundation in number skills, operations, early fractions, and patterns. Lessons are tailored to your child’s pace and aligned with the Australian Curriculum Year 2 Maths.
Tutoring is delivered through 1-on-1 or group online sessions, guided by expert Year 2 maths tutors who focus on real progress.
TERM 1 – Number Foundations & Additive Thinking
S.No
Topic
What We Cover
1
Place Value Foundations: 0–1000
Read, write, say and order 2–3-digit numbers; use hundreds charts and number lines; address look-alike/sound-alike numbers (808/880/818/881).
2
Number Lines & Ordering Strategies
Locate and order numbers on open/decade lines; solve “missing number” line tasks; hundreds-chart puzzles.
3
Building Hundreds–Tens–Ones with Materials
Model large sets (recycling items) grouped into ones/tens/hundreds; connect digits to their value; role of zero introduced.
4
Renaming & Regrouping Numbers
Rename numbers multiple ways (245 = 24 tens 5 ones, etc.); compare equivalences; deepen zero’s place-value role.
5
Facts to 20 Fluency Lab
Ten-frames, doubles/near-doubles, make-10/bridge-to-10; build related subtraction facts systematically.
6
Addition Strategies 1: Part–Part–Whole
Use bar models & number sentences; part-part-whole reasoning; mental jottings; identity of zero in addition.
7
Addition & Subtraction Strategies 2: Lines & Charts
Use mental/physical number lines and hundreds charts; jumps in tens/ones; multi-step everyday contexts.
8
Additive Patterns
Create/describe patterns growing by a constant; identify missing terms; link to built-environment patterns.
9
Modelling with Money (Whole Dollars)
Choose operations for simple purchases; whole-dollar transactions; justify operation choice in words.
10
Term 1 Check-In & Consolidation
Mixed tasks sampling T1 elaborations; quick interviews to balance workload for next term.
TERM 2 – Multiplication Basics & Fractions
S.No
Topic
What We Cover
1
Arrays & “Twos” Facts
Make/name arrays; “3 fours = 4 threes”; doubling/halving supports 2s facts; skip-count beginnings.
2
Division: Sharing & Grouping
Partition vs quotition; Think-Board representations; units in answers (people vs items).
3
Repeated Addition & Skip Counting
From arrays to repeated addition; partition arrays to subitise (2 fives + 1 five); fluent skip counting by 2s.
4
Choose the Operation (Add/Subtract/Multiply/Divide)
Model real problems (teams, sharing food, class groups); discuss remainders; communicate solutions.
5
Fractions 1: What is One-Half?
Halves in shapes, objects, collections; measurement halves (folding paper, playdough, water).
6
Fractions 2: Quarters & Eighths by Halving
Repeated halving shows halves→quarters→eighths; a quarter is half of a half; name/compare equal parts.
7
Fractions 3: Sets & Fair Sharing
Make halves/quarters of collections (compare half of 12 vs half of 8); link unit fraction to number of equal parts.
8
Informal Measurement: Length/Capacity/Mass
Choose suitable uniform informal units; use smaller units for accuracy; balance scales for mass comparisons.
9
Reading Time: Hour & Half-Hour
Build paper-plate clocks; movement of hands; connect “half past” to half a revolution of minute hand.
10
Quarter-Hour & Turns (Intro)
“Quarter past/to” on analogue clocks; link to quarter/half/full turns; clockwise/anticlockwise language.
TERM 3 – Space, Measurement & Applied Problem Solving
S.No
Topic
What We Cover
1
Angles & Turns in Everyday Life
Identify quarter/half/three-quarter/full turns in devices and movement; give/follow turn instructions.
2
Calendars & Days Between Events
Locate dates, count forwards/backwards weeks; “How many days left this year?” using month sums.
3
Shapes 1: Sort & Classify
Classify by sides, equal sides, opposite sides parallel; correct labels for polygons/curves.
4
Shapes 2: Orientation & Digital Manipulation
Recognise shapes in any orientation; create regular/irregular shapes with digital tools; move/rotate vertices.
5
Maps 1: Positions in Familiar Spaces
Read simple maps of classroom/school; identify positions of key features; spatial language.
6
Maps 2: Pathways & Grid Moves
4×4 grid moves; program a robot/toy on a mat; order and distance of instructions to reach a target.
7
Problem Solving Studio: Add/Subtract to 100
Multi-step stories; bar models + number sentences; choose strategies (bridging, partitioning).
8
Money Modelling Revisited
Whole-dollar class shop scenarios; totals, change (using addition/subtraction); justify method.
9
Twos Facts Fluency & Applications
Doubling/halving games; 2s multiplication & related division facts; quick-fire array recognition.
10
Fractions in Time & Events
Halves/quarters/eighths connected to time blocks (sports quarters, half-time); equal parts in schedules.
TERM 4 – Data, Projects & Consolidation
S.No
Topic
What We Cover
1
Collecting Data: Surveys & Observation
Pose a class question; collect categorical data via lists/tables; consider categories; simple counts.
2
Sorting & Displaying Data
Sort into relevant categories; create tables/lists; discuss how data answers the question.
3
Graphs 1: Make with Software
Build picture graphs/column graphs from same data; set titles/axes; discuss one-to-one correspondence.
4
Graphs 2: Compare & Interpret
Compare different displays (picture vs column vs dot/sticker charts); describe similarities/differences.
5
Project: Class Shop (Operations + Money)
Plan purchases, arrays for packs, totals by strategies; communicate solutions in context.
6
Project: Map & Directions Challenge
Design a simple map; give/follow route cards with quarter/half turns; evaluate clarity of instructions.
7
Measurement in Action
Stations: measure items (length/capacity/mass), read/record times, use a calendar to plan an event.
8
Number Consolidation
Place-value interviews; renaming challenges; rapid facts to 20; diagnose next-step needs.
9
Fractions & Operations Consolidation
Unit fractions check; arrays to repeated addition; twos facts/related division; connect to real contexts.
10
