In this unit – 'Collections of ten are really useful', students are provided with opportunities to:
- represent numbers in a variety of ways
- reason about the way numbers can be combined and separated
- use positional language both in a physical world context and in more abstract contexts
- compare the weight of different materials by hefting
- understand time in everyday contexts and tell time on analog and digital clocks
- explain their thinking so it makes sense to others.
Representing whole number – MAO-WM-01, MAE-RWN-01, MAE-RWN-02
- Instantly name the number of objects within small collections
- Use the counting sequence of ones flexibly
- Recognise number patterns
- Connect counting and numerals to quantities
Combining and separating quantities – MAO-WM-01, MAE-CSQ-01, MAE-CSQ-02
- Model additive relations and compare quantities
- Identify part–whole relationships in numbers up to 10
Geometric measure – MAO-WM-01, MAE-GM-01
Position: Describe position and movement of oneself
