What Year 2 Maths students should achieve
Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Year 2 Maths standard sentences this code builds towards:
- Students recall and demonstrate proficiency with addition and subtraction facts within 20 and multiplication facts for twos.
- Students locate and identify positions of features in two-dimensional representations and move position by following directions and pathways.
- Students identify and represent part-whole relationships of halves, quarters and eighths in measurement contexts.
- They use mathematical modelling to solve practical additive and multiplicative problems, including money transactions, representing the situation and choosing calculation strategies.
- They compare and classify shapes, describing features using formal spatial terms.
- They describe and continue patterns that increase and decrease additively by a constant amount and identify missing elements in the pattern.
The Statistics progression either side of AC9M2ST02
A class can only meet this descriptor if they were taught the one before it. If yours hasn't, that's where the lesson starts — not here.
Taught before · Year 1
- AC9M1ST01acquire and record data for categorical variables in various ways including using digital tools, objects, images, drawings, lists, tally marks and symbols
- AC9M1ST02represent collected data for a categorical variable using one-to-one displays and digital tools where appropriate; compare the data using frequencies and discuss the findings
Builds towards · Year 3
- AC9M3ST01acquire data for categorical and discrete numerical variables to address a question of interest or purpose by observing, collecting and accessing data sets; record the data using appropriate methods including frequency tables and spreadsheets
- AC9M3ST02create and compare different graphical representations of data sets including using software where appropriate; interpret the data in terms of the context
- AC9M3ST03conduct guided statistical investigations involving the collection, representation and interpretation of data for categorical and discrete numerical variables with respect to questions of interest
