Measurement and Geometry

1..1.1

Using units of measurement • Measure and compare the lengths and capacities of pairs of objects using uniform informal units - understanding that in order to compare objects, the unit of measurement must be the same size • Tell time to the half-hour - reading time on analogue and digital clocks and observing the characteristics of half-hour times • Describe duration using months, weeks, days and hours - describing the duration of familiar situations such as 'how long is it until we next come to school?'

1..1.2

Shape • Recognise and classify familiar two-dimensional shapes and three-dimensional objects using obvious features - focusing on geometric features and describing shapes and objects using everyday words such as 'corners', 'edges' and 'faces'

1..1.3

Location and transformation • Give and follow directions to familiar locations - understanding that people need to give and follow directions to and from a place, and that this involves turns, direction and distance - understanding the meaning and importance of words such as 'clockwise', 'anticlockwise', 'forward' and 'under' when giving and following directions - interpreting and following directions around familiar locations

Number and Algebra

1..1.1

Number and place value • Develop confidence with number sequences to and from 100 by ones from any starting point. Skip count by twos, fives and tens starting from zero - using the popular Korean counting game (sam-yuk-gu) for skip counting - developing fluency with forwards and backwards counting in meaningful contexts such as circle games • Recognise, model, read, write and order numbers to at least 100. Locate these numbers on a number line - modelling numbers with a range of material and images - identifying numbers that are represented on a number line and placing numbers on a prepared number line • Count collections to 100 by partitioning numbers using place value - understanding partitioning of numbers and the importance of grouping in tens - understanding two-digit numbers as comprised of tens and ones/units • Represent and solve simple addition and subtraction problems using a range of strategies including counting on, partitioning and rearranging parts - developing a range of mental strategies for addition and subtraction problems

1..1.2

Fractions and decimals • Recognise and describe one-half as one of two equal parts of a whole. - developing a range of mental strategies for addition and subtraction problems - splitting an object into two equal pieces and describing how the pieces are equal

1..1.3

Money and financial mathematics • Recognise, describe and order Australian coins according to their value - showing that coins are different in other countries by comparing Asian coins to Australian coins - understanding that the value of Australian coins is not related to size - describing the features of coins that make it possible to identify them

1..1.4

Patterns and algebra • Investigate and describe number patterns formed by skip-counting and patterns with objects - using place-value patterns beyond the teens to generalise the number sequence and predict the next number - investigating patterns in the number system, such as the occurrence of a particular digit in the numbers to 100

Statistics & Probability

1..1.1

Chance • Identify outcomes of familiar events involving chance and describe them using everyday language such as 'will happen', 'won't happen' or 'might happen' - justifying that some events are certain or impossible

1..1.2

Data representation and interpretation • Choose simple questions and gather responses and make simple inferences - determining which questions will gather appropriate responses for a simple investigation • Represent data with objects and drawings where one object or drawing represents one data value. Describe the displays - understanding one-to-one correspondence - describing displays by identifying categories with the greatest or least number of objects
