A. Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) Skills in Mathematics and the Mathematical Processes
Note: Beginning in the 2021–22 school year, schools are asked not to assess, evaluate or report on the overall expectations related to social-emotional learning skills in The Ontario Curriculum, Grades 1–8, Mathematics (2020) and The Ontario Curriculum, Grades 1–8, Health and Physical Education (2019). It is the ministry’s expectation that instruction of the social-emotional learning skills will continue while educators engage in ongoing professional learning. This strand focuses on students’ development and application of social-emotional learning skills to support their learning of math concepts and skills, foster their overall well-being and ability to learn, and help them build resilience and thrive as math learners. As they develop SEL skills, students demonstrate a greater ability to understand and apply the mathematical processes, which are critical to supporting learning in mathematics. In all grades of the mathematics program, the learning related to this strand takes place in the context of learning related to all other strands, and it should be assessed and evaluated within these contexts.
Overall Expectations
Throughout this grade, in order to promote a positive identity as a math learner, to foster well-being and the ability to learn, build resilience, and thrive, students will:B. Number
Overall Expectations
By the end of Grade 2, students will:C. Algebra
Overall Expectations
By the end of Grade 2, students will:C4. Mathematical Modelling
apply the process of mathematical modelling to represent, analyse, make predictions, and provide insight into real-life situations
This overall expectation has no specific expectations. Mathematical modelling is an iterative and interconnected process that is applied to various contexts, allowing students to bring in learning from other strands. Students’ demonstration of the process of mathematical modelling, as they apply concepts and skills learned in other strands, is assessed and evaluated.

By the end of Grade 2, students will:E. Spatial Sense
Overall Expectations
By the end of Grade 2, students will:E1. Geometric and Spatial Reasoning
describe and represent shape, location, and movement by applying geometric properties and spatial relationships in order to navigate the world around them
