Grade 2 Mathematics — Term 2, Week 10

5 day-plan(s) · WeLearn JA MATH T2 G2

Day 1: Algebra: Number Patterns (Skip Counting)

Grade 2 Mathematics · Term 2, Week 10 · 60 min
ObjectivesIdentify and continue number patterns (2s, 5s, 10s, 3s).
MaterialsHundred charts, counters
Key vocabularypattern, skip count, rule
Engage (starter)"What comes next? 2, 4, 6..."
Develop (main)Interactive: Use counters on a hundred chart to find visual patterns. Determine the "rule" (+2, +5) and continue sequences.
Plenary (close)What is the rule for 5, 10, 15?
AssessmentCorrect sequence completion.
Teacher notesFoundational for multiplication.

Day 2: Algebra: Growing and Shrinking Patterns

Grade 2 Mathematics · Term 2, Week 10 · 60 min
ObjectivesIdentify patterns that increase or decrease.
MaterialsNumber lines
Key vocabularyincrease, decrease, growing, shrinking
Engage (starter)"Going up or going down?"
Develop (main)Interactive: Analyze patterns like 20, 18, 16 (-2). State the rule and write the next three numbers.
Plenary (close)Share a shrinking pattern.
AssessmentAccurate rule identification.
Teacher notesInclude subtraction patterns.

Day 3: Algebra: Missing Addends (Concrete)

Grade 2 Mathematics · Term 2, Week 10 · 60 min
ObjectivesFind the missing part in an equation.
MaterialsCounters, part-part-whole mats
Key vocabularymissing addend, equation, part, whole
Engage (starter)"I have 5. I need 8. How many are hidden?"
Develop (main)Interactive: Use mats. Place 8 as the whole, 5 as a part. Find the missing part. Relate to 5 + __ = 8.
Plenary (close)How did you find the missing part?
AssessmentAccurate modeling.
Teacher notesConnect addition and subtraction.

Day 4: Algebra: Missing Numbers (Abstract)

Grade 2 Mathematics · Term 2, Week 10 · 60 min
ObjectivesSolve equations with a missing number.
MaterialsWhiteboards
Key vocabularysolve, unknown
Engage (starter)"Algebra time!"
Develop (main)Interactive: Solve equations like 12 + __ = 20 and __ - 4 = 10 on whiteboards. Discuss strategies (counting on, inverse).
Plenary (close)Share your strategy.
AssessmentCorrect unknown values.
Teacher notesUse a box or blank for the unknown.

Day 5: Algebra: Balancing Equations

Grade 2 Mathematics · Term 2, Week 10 · 60 min
ObjectivesDetermine if equations are equal.
MaterialsBalance scales (visual), whiteboards
Key vocabularybalance, equal sign, true, false
Engage (starter)"Does 4+4 equal 5+3?"
Develop (main)Interactive: Solve both sides of an equal sign. Sort equation cards into "True" (Balanced) and "False" (Unbalanced).
Plenary (close)What does the equal sign really mean?
AssessmentCorrect sorting.
Teacher notesEqual means "the same as", not "the answer is".
