Each month’s unique Grade 2 Every Day Counts calendar pattern of colors and geometric shapes gives students lots of “math to see and talk about”. 

Topics throughout the school year to guide your focus questions and student thinking for preview and review include:

• comparing and ordering numbers, counting on to add or to find a difference, mental math
• explaining odd and even numbers, finding half of a set
• organizing and counting by 2s, 5s, 3s, 4s 6s to 30; understanding multiplication
• learning attributes of 2D and 3D figures using the language of geometry
• understanding congruence, symmetry, reflect, rotate, and using position words
• using color and number patterns to justify a prediction of a future result

As each piece appears, students have fun sharing observations, seeing number relationships, and justifying predictions while building math language and understandings over time.
