PSAC Grade 2 Mathematics — Free Practice Questions

Grade 2 maths practice — numbers to 100, addition and subtraction, first multiplication, halving, simple fractions, time and money.

The jump from twenty to a hundred is a jump in how a number is written, not only in how far a child can count. Tens and ones become two separate pieces of information held in one symbol, and a child who reads 42 as a four next to a two rather than as forty and two will get every column sum after it wrong.

Two genuinely new ideas arrive on top of that place value. Multiplication is introduced as repeated groups — three plates with four mangoes on each — long before it is a table to recite, and halving is the same picture read the other way, which is why division starts with dividing by 2. Simple fractions grow out of those halves and quarters, and money gives all of it something worth counting.
