2nd Grade Grade Level Goals

Everyday Mathematics third-edition Grade Level Goals have been revised to align with the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSS-M), which were widely adopted in 2010. Both versions of the curriculum's goals are available below. For more information on standards, please see Meeting Standards with Everyday Mathematics.

Number and Numeration

Program Goal	Content Thread	Grade-Level Goal
Understand the Meanings, Uses, and Representations of Numbers	Rote counting	Count on by 1s, 2s, 5s, 10s, 25s, and 100s past 1,000 and back by 1s, 10s, and 100s from any number less than 1,000 with and without number grids, number lines, and calculators.
	Place value and notation	Read, write, and model with manipulatives whole numbers up to 10,000; identify places in such numbers and the values of the digits in those places; read and write money amounts in dollars-and-cents notation.
	Meanings and uses of fractions	Use manipulatives and drawings to model fractions as equal parts of a region or a collection; describe the models and name the fractions.
	Number theory	Recognize numbers as odd or even.
Understand Equivalent Names for Numbers	Equivalent names for whole numbers	Use tally marks, arrays, and numerical expressions involving addition and subtraction to give equivalent names for whole numbers.
Understand Equivalent Names for Numbers	Equivalent names for fractions, decimals, and percents	Use manipulatives and drawings to model equivalent names for 1/2.
Understand Common Numerical Relations	Comparing and ordering numbers	Compare and order whole numbers up to 10,000; use area models to compare fractions.

Operations and Computation

Program Goal	Content Thread	Grade-Level Goal
Compute Accurately	Addition and subtraction facts	Demonstrate automaticity with all addition facts through 10 + 10 and fluency with the related subtraction facts.
Compute Accurately	Addition and subtraction procedures	Use manipulatives, number grids, tally marks, mental arithmetic, paper & pencil, and calculators to solve problems involving the addition and subtraction of multidigit whole numbers; describe the strategies used; calculate and compare values of coin and bill combinations.
Make Reasonable Estimates	Computational estimation	Make reasonable estimates for whole number addition and subtraction problems; explain how the estimates were obtained.
Understand Meanings of Operations	Models for the operations	Identify and describe change, comparison, and parts-and-total situations; use repeated addition, arrays, and skip counting to model multiplication; use equal sharing and equal grouping to model division.

Data and Chance

Program Goal	Content Thread	Grade-Level Goal
Select and Create Appropriate Graphical Representations of Collected or Given Data	Data collection and representation	Collect and organize data or use given data to create tally charts, tables, graphs, and line plots.
Analyze and Interpret Data	Data analysis	Use graphs to ask and answer simple questions and draw conclusions; find the maximum, minimum, mode, and median of a data set.
Understand and Apply Basic Concepts of Probability	Qualitative probability	Describe events using certain, likely, unlikely, impossible, and other basic probability terms; explain the choice of language.

Measurement and Reference Frames

Program Goal	Content Thread	Grade-Level Goal
Understand the Systems and Processes of Measurement; Use Appropriate Techniques, Tools, Units, and Formulas in Making Measurements	Length, weight, and angles	Estimate length with and without tools; measure length to the nearest inch and centimeter; use standard and nonstandard tools to measure and estimate weight.
	Area, perimeter, volume, and capacity	Partition rectangles into unit squares and count unit squares to find areas.
	Units and systems of measurement	Describe relationships between days in a week and hours in a day.
	Money	Make exchanges between coins and bills.
