This Content Descriptor from Year 2 Mathematics provides the specific knowledge and skills students should learn. Use it to plan lessons, create learning sequences, and design assessments that align with the Australian Curriculum v9.

Content Descriptor

identify the date and determine the number of days between events using calendars

Elaborations

  • • using calendars to locate specific dates and identify what day it is, to determine the date \(2\) weeks prior to or after a given date
  • • creating a class calendar to enter specific dates relevant to the class; for example, students’ birthdays, school assemblies, sports carnivals or class excursions
  • • using addition and a calendar to model and solve the problem “How many days there are in left in this year?” by identifying the number days of left in this month and in each of the remaining months, and using addition to model and solve the problem
  • • identifying and locating specific days or dates on a calendar; for example, school holidays, sports days, ANZAC Day, Easter, Diwali or Ramadan

Year 2 Mathematics Achievement Standard
By the end of Year 2, students order and represent numbers to at least 1000, apply knowledge of place value to partition, rearrange and rename two- and three-digit numbers in terms of their parts, and regroup partitioned numbers to assist in calculations. They use mathematical modelling to solve practical additive and multiplicative problems, including money transactions, representing the situation and choosing calculation strategies. Students identify and represent part-whole relationships of halves, quarters and eighths in measurement contexts. They describe and continue patterns that increase and decrease additively by a constant amount and identify missing elements in the pattern. Students recall and demonstrate proficiency with addition and subtraction facts within 20 and multiplication facts for twos. They use uniform informal units to measure and compare shapes and objects. Students determine the number of days between events using a calendar and read time on an analog clock to the hour, half hour and quarter hour. They compare and classify shapes, describing features using formal spatial terms. Students locate and identify positions of features in two-dimensional representations and move position by following directions and pathways. They use a range of methods to collect, record, represent and interpret categorical data in response to questions.
