SECONDARY 2 MATH SYLLABUS

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

In Secondary 2 (G3) your child will be able to:

  • Solve problems involving direct and inverse proportion in real-world contexts.

  • Simplify and evaluate linear expressions with fractional coefficients.

  • Apply Pythagoras’ theorem in right-angled triangles.

  • Calculate the volume and surface area of pyramids and cones.

  • Interpret statistical diagrams and calculate the mean for grouped data.

 

In Secondary 2 (G2) your child will be able to:

  • Solve quadratic equations using factorisation and the quadratic formula.

  • Plot and interpret linear functions in the form y = ax + b and determine gradients.

  • Apply trigonometric ratios and Pythagoras’ theorem to right-angled triangles.

  • Calculate the volume and surface area of cones and spheres.

  • Analyse data and calculate mean, mode, and median.

Common Struggles Faced bY SECONDARY 2 Students in Maths

  1. Has issues remembering rules, numbers, formulas, and theorems in context.
  2. Anxiety related to the subject matter that impacts functioning.
  3. Struggles to relate mathematics to the physical world.
  4. Poor study methods, such as learned helplessness, lead to overreliance on rote memorization.
  5. A deficit in purposeful practice needed to develop mastery and self-assurance.
