Year 2 Maths Practice Statement trackers

A simple tracker for your class. Practice Statements down the left, ten student-name spaces across the top, and blank cells to use your way.

Choose a strand below. Write in the names, then add your own ticks, dates, codes or notes. For a class of 25, print three copies of the tracker.

55 Practice Statements · 6 strands · PDF and Google Sheets · No TeacherGPT signup needed

Choose a tracker by strand

Each preview shows the first page of that PDF. Longer strands continue over several pages, with space for the same ten names on every page.

Prefer to work online? Choose Copy to Google Sheets to make your own editable copy in your Google account. The original is view-only. Add student names and notes to your own copy, and add more student columns if needed.

In the Number PDF, each curriculum subcategory starts on a new page. Longer subcategories continue under the same heading.

Practice Statements included

These trackers cover all 55 stored Year 2 Maths Practice Statements, organised into their curriculum strands and skill groups.

Algebra

Equations and relationships

  • Using ordinal numbers to identify months of the year
Number

Financial mathematics

  • Recognising and ordering New Zealand denominations according to their value, making groups of 'like' denominations, and calculating their value
  • Combining denominations of currency (either all notes or all coins) to make a particular value

Number structures

  • Using te reo Māori for numbers up to 100
  • Recognising the place value of each digit in a two-digit number, and a three-digit number up to 120
  • Approximately locating numbers up to 120 on a partially labelled number line (e.g. 61 on a number line labelled in tens)
  • Finding the total number of objects up to 120 by separating them into groups (e.g. groups of ten)
  • Rounding numbers up to 120 to the nearest 10
  • Counting forwards in 3s from multiples of 3s
