• VCMNA018

  Use number names ‘one’, ‘two’ and ‘three’ in sequence to count in everyday situations

  Elaborations

  • assisting to count objects initially to three, by participating in activities, stories, songs and rhymes that involve number. This could include nodding as objects are counted, tapping an object as it is counted, tracking objects being counted, repeating some number names as objects are being counted
  • responding to number of names in everyday situations, for example waiting for counting down or up before starting an action, sound, activity; stepping, clapping, making a sound, tapping a switch for each number
  • exploring and using some number names by ‘repeating’ number name either verbally or through a communication system or augmentative and alternative communication (AAC)

• VCMNA103

  Investigate number sequences, initially those increasing and decreasing by twos, threes, fives and ten from any starting point, then moving to other sequences

  Elaborations

  • developing fluency and confidence with numbers and calculations by saying number sequences
  • recognising that the natural numbers with zero form an ordered infinite set {0, 1, 2, 3 … } with a first element but no last element
  • recognising patterns in number sequences, such as adding 10 always results in the same final digit

• VCMMG062

  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

  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

  • identifying the number words in sequence, backwards and forwards, and reasoning with the number sequences, establishing the language on which subsequent counting experiences can be built
  • developing fluency with forwards and backwards counting in meaningful contexts, including stories and rhymes
