Now let’s take a closer look at some of the board games that are included!
Operations and Algebraic Thinking
In the Operations and Algebraic Thinking 2nd Grade Math Board Games, students practice the skills of representing and solving problems involving addition and subtraction within 100. They will use strategies to make addition and subtraction equations. Furthermore, they will demonstrate their understanding of the relationship between repeated addition and arrays. Here are a few of the board games included for each standard:
2.OA.A.1
Use addition and subtraction within 100 to solve one- and two-step word problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all positions, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.
2.OA.B.2
Fluently add and subtract within 20 using mental strategies. By end of Grade 2, know from memory all sums of two one-digit numbers.
2.OA.C.3
Determine whether a group of objects (up to 20) has an odd or even number of members, e.g., by pairing objects or counting them by 2s; write an equation to express an even number as a sum of two equal addends.
2.OA.C.4
Use addition to find the total number of objects arranged in rectangular arrays with up to 5 rows and up to 5 columns; write an equation to express the total as a sum of equal addends.
Numbers and Operations in Base Ten
In the 2nd Grade Math Board Games for Number and Operations in Base Ten, students practice place value concepts for hundreds, tens and ones for numbers up to 1,000. This will to help them compare numbers, mentally add or subtract one hundred and ten from any given number. They will also practice skip counting by 5’s, 10’s and 100’s up to 1,000. Here are the board games for this standard:
2.NBT.A.1
Understand that the three digits of a three-digit number represent amounts of hundreds, tens, and ones; e.g., 706 equals 7 hundreds, 0 tens, and 6 ones.
2.NBT.A.1.A
100 can be thought of as a bundle of ten tens — called a “hundred.”
2.NBT.A.1.B
The numbers 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900 refer to one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine hundreds (and 0 tens and 0 ones).
2.NBT.A.2
Count within 1000; skip-count by 5s, 10s, and 100s.
2.NBT.A.3
Read and write numbers to 1000 using base-ten numerals, number names, and expanded form.
2.NBT.A.4
Compare two three-digit numbers based on meanings of the hundreds, tens, and ones digits, using >, =, and < symbols to record the results of comparisons.
2.NBT.B.5
Fluently add and subtract within 100 using strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction.
2.NBT.B.6
Add up to four two-digit numbers using strategies based on place value and properties of operations.
2.NBT.B.7
Add and subtract within 1000, using concrete models or drawings and strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction; relate the strategy to a written method. Understand that in adding or subtracting three-digit numbers, one adds or subtracts hundreds and hundreds, tens and tens, ones and ones; and sometimes it is necessary to compose or decompose tens or hundreds.
2.NBT.B.8
Mentally add 10 or 100 to a given number 100-900, and mentally subtract 10 or 100 from a given number 100-900.
2.NBT.B.9
Explain why addition and subtraction strategies work, using place value and the properties of operations.
Measurement and Data
In the Measurement and Data 2nd Grade Math Board Games students practice measuring and comparing lengths of objects directly using a ruler, yard stick, meter stick or measuring tape. They also will learn how to tell and write time to the nearest 5 minutes, and represent and interpret data in up to 4 categories, and solve simple word problems involving dollar bills and coins.
2.MD.A.1
Measure the length of an object by selecting and using appropriate tools such as rulers, yardsticks, meter sticks, and measuring tapes.
2.MD.A.2
Measure the length of an object twice, using length units of different lengths for the two measurements; describe how the two measurements relate to the size of the unit chosen.
2.MD.A.3
Estimate lengths using units of inches, feet, centimeters, and meters.
2.MD.A.4
Measure to determine how much longer one object is than another, expressing the length difference in terms of a standard length unit.
2.MD.B.5
Use addition and subtraction within 100 to solve word problems involving lengths that are given in the same units, e.g., by using drawings (such as drawings of rulers) and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.
2.MD.B.6
Represent whole numbers as lengths from 0 on a number line diagram with equally spaced points corresponding to the numbers 0, 1, 2, …, and represent whole-number sums and differences within 100 on a number line diagram.
2.MD.C.7
Tell and write time from analog and digital clocks to the nearest five minutes, using a.m. and p.m.
2.MD.C.8
Solve word problems involving dollar bills, quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies, using $ and ¢ symbols appropriately. Example: If you have 2 dimes and 3 pennies, how many cents do you have?
2.MD.D.9
Generate measurement data by measuring lengths of several objects to the nearest whole unit, or by making repeated measurements of the same object. Show the measurements by making a line plot, where the horizontal scale is marked off in whole-number units.
2.MD.D.10
Draw a picture graph and a bar graph (with single-unit scale) to represent a data set with up to four categories. Solve simple put-together, take-apart, and compare problems using information presented in a bar graph.
Geometry
In the Geometry 2nd Grade Math Board Games, naming shapes, identifying shape attributes and partitioning circles and rectangles into halves, thirds and fourths. Students will also learn to count rows, columns and squares in a given array.
2.G.A.1
Recognize and draw shapes having specified attributes, such as a given number of angles or a given number of equal faces. Identify triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, and cubes.
2.G.A.2
Partition a rectangle into rows and columns of same-size squares and count to find the total number of them.
2.G.A.3
Partition circles and rectangles into two, three, or four equal shares, describe the shares using the words halves, thirds, half of, a third of, etc., and describe the whole as two halves, three thirds, four fourths. Recognize that equal shares of identical wholes need not have the same shape.
