  Model practical situations involving ‘adding to’ or ‘taking away’ with collections of up to five objects

  Elaborations

  • using shared experiences with concrete materials to combine two groups of objects, and count to find a total
  • counting on or back from a group using concrete materials, for example adding/ subtracting balls in a basket, pens in a container, tools in a tool box
  • using a calculator or digital device to undertake simple addition and subtraction
  • exploring the concept of adding one and taking away one

  Identify and sequence regular events that occur during the school day and comment on their duration (short/long)

  Elaborations

  • creating and following a visual schedule based on the school day’s events
  • ordering events based on duration, for example, ‘I can do more at lunch time than recess’
  • comparing and labelling events as long, short, quick
  • understanding the purpose of a clock and some of its features
  • using timers and a clock to explore and compare time and duration of events

• VCMNA054

  Subitise regular arrangements of objects and arrays up to five

  Elaborations

  • understanding that some numbers are represented by a set pattern or array

  Use direct comparison to sort three dimensional objects and two dimensional shapes

  Elaborations

  • sorting shapes that are the ‘same’ or ‘different’
  • identifying, matching and sorting simple familiar two and three dimensional objects according to a single attribute
  • identifying familiar shapes hidden in a picture
  • investigating the inside and outside shape of an object
  • understanding the relationship between shape and template, for example, insert puzzle, inserting a shape in a matching shaped hole

  Use number names in sequence to count in everyday situations, initially from one to ten

  Elaborations

  • developing fluency with forward counting by communicating number names while counting, initially to 10 and in meaningful contexts such as cooking, collecting equipment, stories and games
  • understanding one-to-one correspondence by knowing that each object is counted only once, by tracking an object while counting in shared and structured counting experiences, for example moving objects once counted, counting objects left to right
