Using units of measurement
Based on the Australian Curriculum, Using units of measurement in Mathematics Year 2 includes:
- ACMMG037 Compare and order several shapes and objects based on length, area, volume and capacity using appropriate uniform informal units
- ACMMG038 Compare masses of objects using balance scales
- ACMMG039 Tell time to the quarter-hour, using the language of 'past' and 'to'
- ACMMG040 Name and order months and seasons
- ACMMG041 Use a calendar to identify the date and determine the number of days in each month
