Goal: Japan Course of Study (MEXT), elementary school: Mathematics, Grade 2

## 1. Numbers and Calculations · To help pupils understand the meaning and the representations of numbers, and extend their ability to use numbers.

- [What Multiplication Means](https://ai.page/c/what-multiplication-means/index.md): Interpret products of whole numbers (e.g. 5 × 7 as the total number of objects in 5 groups of 7)
- [Numbers to 10,000](https://ai.page/c/numbers-to-10-000/index.md): Identify, represent, and estimate numbers up to 10,000 using different representations
- [Tenths (age 8+)](https://ai.page/c/tenths-age-8/index.md): Count up and down in hundredths; recognise that hundredths arise when dividing an object by 100 or dividing tenths by 10
- [Understanding fractions](https://ai.page/c/understanding-fractions-maths/index.md): Write simple fractions (e.g. 1/2 of 6 = 3) and recognise the equivalence of 2/4 and 1/2

## 2. Numbers and Calculations · To help pupils deepen their understanding of addition and subtraction, and extend their ability to use the calculations.

- [Adding and subtracting (age 7+)](https://ai.page/c/adding-and-subtracting-age-7/index.md): Add and subtract numbers with up to three digits using formal written methods of columnar addition and subtraction
- [Adding and subtracting (age 8+)](https://ai.page/c/adding-and-subtracting-age-8/index.md): Add and subtract numbers with up to four digits using formal written methods of columnar addition and subtraction
- [Adding two two-digit numbers](https://ai.page/c/adding-two-two-digit-numbers/index.md): Add and subtract two two-digit numbers using concrete objects, pictorial representations, and mental methods
- [Money Addition & Subtraction](https://ai.page/c/money-addition-and-subtraction/index.md): Solve simple money problems involving addition and subtraction, including giving change

## 3. Quantities and Measurements · To help pupils understand the meaning of units and measurements of length and measure the length.

- [Measuring with different units](https://ai.page/c/measuring-with-different-units/index.md): Measure the length of an object using two different length units and describe how the measurements relate to the size of the unit chosen
- [Calculating with measurements](https://ai.page/c/calculating-with-measurements/index.md): Measure, compare, add, and subtract lengths (m/cm/mm), mass (kg/g), and volume/capacity (l/ml) using standard units
- [Estimating Lengths](https://ai.page/c/estimating-lengths/index.md): Estimate lengths using units of inches, feet, centimetres, and metres

## 4. Quantities and Measurements · To help pupils understand the meaning of units and measurements of volume and measure the volume.

- [Choosing measurement units](https://ai.page/c/choosing-measurement-units/index.md): Choose and use appropriate standard units to measure length (m/cm), mass (kg/g), temperature (°C), and capacity (litres/ml) to the nearest appropriate unit
- [Measuring Liquids & Masses](https://ai.page/c/measuring-liquids-and-masses/index.md): Measure and estimate liquid volumes and masses of objects using grams, kilograms, and litres; solve one-step word problems involving mass or volume

## 5. Quantities and Measurements · To help pupils understand time and use it.

- [Comparing Time Durations](https://ai.page/c/comparing-time-durations/index.md): Compare durations of events and calculate the time taken by particular events or tasks

## 6. Geometrical Figures · Through activities such as observing and composing the shapes of objects, to help pupils pay attention to the elements that compose geometrical figures, and understand geometrica

- [Composing Shapes](https://ai.page/c/composing-shapes/index.md): Compose two-dimensional shapes (rectangles, squares, trapezoids, triangles, half-circles, quarter-circles) to create composite shapes, and compose new shapes from the composite shape

## 7. Mathematical Relations

- [Representing Addition and Subtraction](https://ai.page/c/representing-addition-and-subtraction/index.md): Represent addition and subtraction using objects, drawings, and mental images
- [Connecting maths to real life](https://ai.page/c/connecting-maths-to-real-life/index.md): Represent real-world problems with number sentences, bar models, or diagrams, and interpret the mathematical result back in context
