What to Expect from CAPS Grade 2 Life Skills

Grade 2 Life Skills deepens the personal, creative, and physical development of Grade 1 — with more structured creative arts activities, expanding social awareness, and more complex physical skills. EdSoft's module keeps every learner actively engaged across all three strands.

Beginning Knowledge and Personal Social Well-being

Grade 2 learners explore their immediate environment more broadly — seasons, weather, and natural phenomena are investigated alongside ongoing personal and social development. Learners develop greater emotional awareness, practise conflict resolution, and explore the concepts of fairness, rights, and responsibilities within their school and family contexts.

Creative Arts

Visual Arts in Grade 2 develops more intentional art-making — exploring colour mixing, texture, and basic design principles. Music develops melody recognition, rhythm reading, and ensemble singing. Drama explores character, narrative, and performance through guided role-play and story dramatisation. Movement and dance activities develop greater body awareness and creative expression.

Physical Education

Grade 2 Physical Education develops more complex movement patterns — combinations of locomotor movements, balance and coordination challenges, and partner and group games that build teamwork and physical confidence. Swimming readiness skills and water confidence are introduced where relevant.
