• Mathematics: Foundation Level description

  In Foundation level, students play with objects and draw pictures to develop links between their immediate environment, everyday language and mathematical activity.

  Students classify and sort objects into sets and form simple correspondences between them. They decide when two sets are of equal...

• Mathematics: Level C description

  In Level C, students demonstrate awareness in practical situations, connecting objects, numbers names and numerals from one to three, using ‘one more than’ and ‘one less than’.

  They match like objects, describe differences between objects for given attribute, show familiarity...

• Mathematics: Foundation Level achievement standards

  Number and Algebra

  Students connect number names and numerals with sets of up to 20 elements, estimate the size of these sets, and use counting strategies to solve problems that involve comparing, combining and separating these sets. They match individual objects with counting sequences up to and...

• VCMMG013

  Respond to familiar everyday shapes and objects

  Elaborations

  • experiencing a variety of objects and their characteristics, and being introduced to the names of shapes through interaction with objects
  • reacting to three-dimensional objects in everyday situations with the use of sensory input, for example touching, feeling, looking, shaking, rolling
  • responding to objects and shapes as they are identified in the classroom and environment in everyday situations

• VCMMG030

  Identify when two shapes or objects are the same sort or not

  Elaborations

  • using ‘posting’ of items into different containers or holes to manipulate and sort shapes and objects
  • recognising three dimensional objects when identified in the environment using everyday situations
  • matching everyday objects that are ‘the same’
  • exploring shapes by using ‘play dough’ and other malleable materials to make shapes
  • developing an awareness of the language used to describe shapes

• VCMMG014

  Respond to movement of an object

  Elaborations

  • experiencing movement and position within various environments and everyday events, for example exploring the concept of ‘inside and outside’ during structured activities
  • experiencing the language used to name movement and changes in position during everyday experiences, such as up, down, over, under
  • reacting to a variety of body positions and movements within the context of everyday activities
  • using everyday language of location and position to assist students to react to changes to objects and their body, for example, ‘arms up’, ‘I am moving your bag’, ‘Where did it go?’
  • reaching for or looking for a desired object by moving head or body for a better view
