Summary

• Description:

  The MS Word document comprises PP2 Mathematics Activities Term 3 Schemes of Work - Longhorn. The PDF version is also available upon your request.

  The scheme of work primarily uses the Longhorn Mathematics Activities Teacher's Guide as its main learning resource, supported by counters (sticks, blocks, pebbles, bottle tops), containers, digital devices, and clocks. This downloadable Scheme of Work provides structured week-by-week guidance designed to build foundational numeracy, measurement concepts, and time awareness in Pre-Primary 2 learners.

  The scheme is organized into the following strands and substrands:

  • Number Activities
    • Taking Away (Collecting Sets, Demonstrating Subtraction of Sets up to 9, Counting Remainders)
  • Measurement
    • Sides of Objects (Measuring Sides of Objects in the Environment, Measuring Using Arbitrary Units)
    • Mass (Heavy and Light: Lifting Objects, See-Saw Activities, Back-to-Back Lifting)
    • Capacity (How Much a Container Can Hold, Filling and Emptying Containers)
    • Time (Daily Routines, Shadow Sizes at Different Times of the Day, Tools Used for Telling Time)

  The topics covered throughout the term include:

  • Taking Away (Subtraction): Counting items in sets, taking away fewer objects from sets not exceeding 9, counting remaining objects, singing subtraction songs, reciting poems, and watching interactive taking-away videos using ICT devices.
  • Sides of Objects: Observing straight-sided objects in the environment, comparing side lengths to determine longer and shorter sides, measuring sides using arbitrary units (hand spans, feet, sticks), and watching video demonstrations on measurement.
  • Mass (Heavy and Light): Collecting objects from the environment (sand, water, stones, blocks, leaves), lifting objects to compare heaviness, engaging in see-saw games and back-to-back lifting with peers, and listening to stories on heavy and light objects.
  • Capacity: Filling and emptying large and small containers using water, sand, and seeds, estimating and comparing container capacities, and determining how many small containers fill a larger container.
  • Time and Daily Routines: Comparing the lengths of shadows at various times of the day, using time-related vocabulary (morning, afternoon, evening, day, and night), identifying days of the week and months of the year, and recognizing time-telling tools (clocks, calendars, mobile phones, and nature-based indicators).

  Assessment approaches include self-assessment, question-and-answer sessions, and practical classroom observation.
