Early Stage 1, mathematics – Unit 06
Explore the big idea that 'equal means equivalent' in this two-week sample unit.
In this unit – 'Equal means equivalent', students are provided with opportunities to:
- understand equal as equivalence through exploring mass
- explore number relations
- use number relations in combining and separating numbers.
Representing whole number – MAO-WM-01, MAE-RWN-01, MAE-RWN-02
- Instantly name the number of objects within small collections
- Recognise number patterns
- Use the counting sequence of ones flexibly
- 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
Non-spatial measure – MAO-WM-01, MAE-NSM-01
Mass: Identify and compare mass using weight
