Course
Geometry, Measurement, and Data
A Grade 2 math course that helps students name shapes, measure length, and read simple graphs.
Geometry, Measurement, and Data
Course overview
This course helps Grade 2 students name flat and solid shapes, measure length with centimeters, and read simple data displays. Students will use shape language, ruler reading, tally charts, picture graphs, and bar graphs to describe what they see.
What students will learn
- Name common 2D and 3D shapes.
- Count sides and vertices in flat shapes.
- Estimate and measure length with centimeters.
- Compare two objects using the same unit.
- Read picture graphs and bar graphs.
- Describe data with words like more, fewer, most, and least.
Lessons
- Two-Dimensional and Three-Dimensional Shapes - Learn how to name flat and solid shapes and describe their parts.
- Measure Length with Centimeters - Learn how to estimate, measure, and compare lengths.
- Read Picture and Bar Graphs - Learn how to organize data and read simple graphs.
Parent guide
Work through the course in short sessions with objects from home, a ruler, and simple survey questions. Keep the language concrete so the child can point, count, measure, and compare before answering.
Completion
A student finishes this course when they can describe a flat shape and a solid shape, measure a length in centimeters, and explain what a simple picture or bar graph shows.
