recall and use addition and subtraction facts to 20 fluently, and derive and use related facts up to 100

ENG-NC-MA-Y2-009

add and subtract numbers using concrete objects, pictorial representations, and mentally, including:

ENG-NC-MA-Y2-010

show that addition of 2 numbers can be done in any order (commutative) and subtraction of 1 number from another cannot

ENG-NC-MA-Y2-011

recognise and use the inverse relationship between addition and subtraction and use this to check calculations and solve missing number problems

recall and use multiplication and division facts for the 2, 5 and 10 multiplication tables, including recognising odd and even numbers

ENG-NC-MA-Y2-013

calculate mathematical statements for multiplication and division within the multiplication tables and write them using the multiplication (×), division (÷) and equals (=) signs

ENG-NC-MA-Y2-014

show that multiplication of 2 numbers can be done in any order (commutative) and division of 1 number by another cannot

ENG-NC-MA-Y2-015

solve problems involving multiplication and division, using materials, arrays, repeated addition, mental methods, and multiplication and division facts, including problems in contexts

ENG-NC-MA-Y2-016

recognise, find, name and write fractions [Fraction:1/3], [Fraction:1/4], [Fraction:2/4] and [Fraction:3/4] of a length, shape, set of objects or quantity

ENG-NC-MA-Y2-017

write simple fractions, for example [Fraction:1/2] of 6 = 3 and recognise the equivalence of [Fraction:2/4] and [Fraction:1/2]

ENG-NC-MA-Y2-018

choose and use appropriate standard units to estimate and measure length/height in any direction (m/cm); mass (kg/g); temperature (°C); capacity (litres/ml) to the nearest appropriate unit, using rulers, scales, thermometers and measuring vessels

ENG-NC-MA-Y2-019

compare and order lengths, mass, volume/capacity and record the results using >, < and =
