Following the White Rose Maths scheme, Year 2 will cover four main blocks of learning over the course of the summer term: number (including the four operations); measure; statistics; and geometry. As part of the White Rose Maths scheme, each block is broken down into a series of small learning steps. Combined, these small learning steps then cover all the curriculum content your child needs to know in small related chunks.
