In this unit, 'Sometimes things move and change location', students will learn to:
- describe their position and movement
- give and follow simple directions to position themselves or objects
- interpret simple maps by identifying objects in different locations
- create a path from one location to another.

- 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
