In this unit, 'Problems can be solved and represented in different ways', students are provided opportunities to:
- solve problems by combining, separating and forming groups
- sequence and identify the duration of events using a range of methods
- read hour time on analog clocks
- explain and represent mathematical thinking in a variety of ways.
Representing whole numbers – 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
