This curriculum gives you everything you need for second grade maths. It includes two student worktexts (A and B), end-of-chapter-tests, cumulative revision worksheets, an end-of-year test, and answer keys.

Math Mammoth South African version has been customised to South Africa in the following manners: the names used are South African names (such as Ansie and Jali). The currency used in word problems is rand. The money chapter teaches both rand and cents. The lessons use metric units (not customary units). Spelling conforms to British English. Paper size is A4. Geographic locations used emphasise South African locations (such as Pretoria, Johannesburg). Please note that the curriculum is not following the South African official syllabus for 2nd grade maths. Instead, it simply is a copy of the US version of Math Mammoth Grade 2. For the most part, Math Mammoth exceeds South African standards. Some standards may not be covered.

Math Mammoth focuses on conceptual understanding. It explains the "WHY", so your children can understand the maths, not just learn "HOW" to do it. It is also mastery-oriented. This means it concentrates fairly long on a topic, delving into its various aspects. There is a strong emphasis on mental maths and number sense.

All the instruction is written directly to the student in the worktext, and there also exist accompanying videos where you can watch the author teach the material.

The main areas of study in this curriculum are: understanding of the base-ten system within 0-1000 (this includes place value with three-digit numbers, skip-counting in fives, tens, and multiples of hundreds, tens and ones); developing fluency with addition and subtraction within 0-100, including solving word problems, regrouping in addition, and regrouping in subtraction; using standard units of measure; and describing and analyzing shapes. Additional topics we study are time/clock, money, introduction to multiplication, and bar graphs and picture graphs.
