2. Play a matching game

Your child will be expected to write numbers up to 100 using numerals and words. You could support their learning by playing a matching game.

Make two sets of simple cards or pieces of paper. On one set of cards, write numbers in numerals (for example, ’67’). On another set of cards, write the matching number names (for example, ‘sixty-seven’). Mix all the cards up and play snap.

Activity: Number words

3. Compare and order numbers

Encourage you child to talk through how they know that one number is bigger or smaller than another:

I know that 32 is smaller than 76, because 32 only has 3 tens, and 76 has 7 tens.

Encourage your child to use more than (>) and less than (<) symbols when comparing numbers. For example, they could write 32 < 76 or 76 > 32.

You could practise ordering with a card game. Write twenty two-digit numbers and the ‘>’ and ‘<‘ symbols on separate pieces of paper. Deal your child two numbers, face down. Ask them to turn over the pieces of paper and to use the ‘>’ and ‘<‘ symbols to show which number is bigger or smaller.

Activity: Number statements

When your child is counting objects, ask them to estimate how many there are before they count them. Being able to make accurate estimates within mathematics is a valuable skill we use in everyday life. It will help them to tell if their answers to maths problems are reasonable or not.

When counting more than ten objects in a set, it is an important skill for your child to be able to group objects in groups of ten. For example, if they are counting 36 buttons, encourage them to begin by counting out buttons into groups of ten. They will then have 3 groups of ten buttons and 6 buttons on their own.

Activity: Counting coins

5. Partition numbers in different ways

Partitioning means to break numbers into parts. Use practical resources, such as straws grouped in tens, to partition numbers in different ways. For example, the number 54 can be partitioned into 50 + 4, 40 + 14, 30 + 24, 20 + 34, or 10 + 44.

This will help your child to see patterns in numbers as they develop their calculation skills.

6. Using number facts

To help reinforce your child’s understanding of number, try to find everyday opportunities for them to use known number facts to solve problems.

This is a really easy thing to do at home and in the shops. For example:

‘If we buy 7 apples and 3 bananas – how many pieces of fruit do we have altogether?’   ‘If we have 10 people coming to your party and we have 5 party bags, how many more do we need to buy?’

Please note:

Our site is mainly based around the US Elementary school math standards.

Though the links on this page are all designed primarily for students in the US, but they are also at the correct level and standard for UK students.

The main issue is that some of the spelling is different and this site uses US spelling.

Year 2 is generally equivalent to 1st Grade in the US.

On this page you will find link to our range of math worksheets for Year 2.
