In Level 1, students use mathematical symbols and language as well as materials and drawings in their mathematical explorations of daily life.
Students recognise, represent and order numbers to at least 100 using materials, diagrams, words, numerals and a number line, and apply this with respect to the value of Australian coins. They group and skip count by twos, fives and tens, and count to 100 by partitioning and using place value. Students solve simple addition problems, and share into two equal groups or parts to model one-half.
Students use uniform informal units to measure and compare length and capacity. They tell time to the half-hour and use time and calendar terms such as hours, days, weeks and months to describe duration. Students use terms such as corner, edge and face to classify familiar shapes and objects, and are able to give and follow directions to familiar locations.
Students use one-to-one correspondences to display categorical data obtained from a simple investigation. They identify chance events in familiar contexts and use everyday language such as ‘will happen’, won’t happen’ or ‘might happen’ in relation to these.
Number and Algebra
Students count to and from 100 and locate these numbers on a number line. They partition numbers using place value and carry out simple additions and subtractions, using counting strategies. Students recognise Australian coins according to their value. They identify representations of one half. Students describe number sequences resulting from skip counting by 2s, 5s and 10s. They continue simple patterns involving numbers and objects with and without the use of digital technology.
Measurement and Geometry
Students use informal units of measurement to order objects based on length, mass and capacity. They tell time to the half-hour and explain time durations. Students describe two-dimensional shapes and three-dimensional objects. They use the language of distance and direction to move from place to place.
Statistics and Probability
Students describe data displays. They ask questions to collect data and draw simple data displays. Students classify outcomes of simple familiar events.
