Grade 2 builds fluency — numbers get friendlier, sentences get longer, and independent work starts to stick. Here is the year as Ontario schools actually teach it — unit by unit, in order — so you can see what your child is working on right now, and what's coming next.
Ontario math runs as a sequence: each unit builds on the one before it. The week ranges below follow the school year from September; teachers vary pacing.
Reading, representing, comparing and ordering whole numbers to 200; place value.
Adding and subtracting within 100 using strategies and math facts.
Worth watching: if adding still means counting every object one by one, a few minutes of practice a day builds the number facts everything else leans on.
Equal groups, arrays, and sharing to build multiplication and division.
Identify, represent and compare halves, thirds and fourths only; no other denominators and no multi-step problems.
Growing and repeating patterns; equality and unknowns.
2D shapes and 3D objects; symmetry; location and movement on a grid.
Length in cm and m; time; pictographs and bar graphs; money to one dollar.
How much money is 3 dimes and 1 nickel?
Animals grow and change and have distinct characteristics.
The properties and physical changes of liquids and solids.
Movement and ways in which simple machines help to move objects.
The properties of air and water, including water in various states, and ways in which living things depend on air and water for their survival.
Put these in the right order: butterfly, egg, chrysalis, caterpillar.
Family and community traditions and celebrations, how they differ, and how they have changed over time.
Global communities around the world: where they are and how their location shapes daily life.
Unlike math and science, the language curriculum isn't taught as a sequence of units — it's a set of skills that deepen all year: reading comprehension and inference, writing structure and conventions, vocabulary, and oral communication. French works the same way. Homework Hub practises these as grade-matched weekly skills — a reading passage with real comprehension questions, a sentence to fix, a short prompt to write to — rather than pretending there's a unit list.
Homework Hub generates fresh questions matched to these very units — in season, at your child's level, marked with hints that teach. You set the days; it does the rest.

School boards and teachers vary pacing — week ranges are a typical rhythm, not a rule.
