BARCODE FOR PRICES:

The JOURNEY THROUGH MATHS STUDENT BOOK 2 NEW EDITION (PCTB) is a foundational mathematics textbook designed for Primary level (Class 2) students.¹ It is part of the “Journey Through Maths” series published by Paramount Books and is specifically written to adhere to the 2020 National Curriculum of Pakistan (PCTB).²

The book’s aim is to progressively build on the foundational skills learned in Class 1, expanding the number range and introducing more complex operations and early concepts of geometry and measurement in an engaging, visual way.³

Book Details

Curriculum Focus

Building upon Class 1 concepts, the Class 2 curriculum typically expands the scope of numbers and operations, including:

• Whole Numbers: Extending number recognition, counting, and writing up to at least 100 or 1,000. Reinforcing concepts of place value (ones, tens, and hundreds).
• Addition and Subtraction: Developing two-digit and three-digit addition and subtraction with and without regrouping (carrying and borrowing).
• Multiplication and Division: Introducing the foundational concepts of multiplication (repeated addition) and division (repeated subtraction/equal sharing).
• Geometry and Shapes: Identifying and describing 2D and 3D shapes and understanding their basic properties.⁴

   

• Measurement: Elementary concepts of length, mass, and capacity using non-standard or early standard units, and telling time to the hour, half-hour, and quarter-hour.
• Data Handling: Simple picture graphs and bar charts to collect and organize data.

Key Pedagogical Features

The book’s structure is designed for progressive learning and building student confidence:⁵

• Curriculum Alignment: Ensures seamless integration with the official PCTB syllabus, covering all required learning outcomes.⁶

   

• Visual Approach: Uses a strong visual approach with clear explanations and engaging activities to make mathematics appealing and accessible to young students.⁷

   

• Progressive Mastery: Offers ample practice opportunities that progress in difficulty, helping students gradually master key mathematical concepts and strengthen skills in numbers, algebra, geometry, and logic.⁸
• Fosters Confidence: A structured learning environment allows students to build on prior knowledge, track their own progress, and develop learner autonomy and strong problem-solving skills.⁹
