In Level 2, students use grouping partitioning and re-arrangement to apply place value and extend the range of numbers they use and apply to thousands.
Students recognise, model and order numbers to at least 1000 and use a variety of strategies to count efficiently, including skip counting forwards and backwards by twos threes, fives and tens, with and without the use of technology. They explore the relationship between addition and subtraction, and use a variety of strategies to solve problems, including missing number problems. Students use groups and arrays to represent multiplication and division and solve simple problems, including finding halves, quarters and eighths of sets and shapes. They count and order by value, small collections of Australian coins and notes.
Students compare and order sets of shapes and objects based on length, area, volume and capacity using uniform informal units. They compare masses using balance scales, tell the time to the quarter hour, and use months and seasons to describe sequences of events over a longer time frame. Students describe sets of shapes and objects defined in terms of properties, and draw examples of these with and without the use of technology. They use simple maps and identify relative locations, and investigate the effect of simple transformations of slides, flips, half and quarter turns, both by hand and using technology.
Students use questions of interest to gather and display data for a single categorical variable and interpret it. They identify chance in a range of activities and describe related outcomes as ‘likely’ or ‘unlikely’.
Number and Algebra
Students count to and from, and order numbers up to 1000. They perform simple addition and subtraction calculations, using a range of strategies. They find the total value of simple collections of Australian notes and coins. Students represent multiplication and division by grouping into sets and divide collections and shapes into halves, quarters and eighths. They recognise increasing and decreasing number sequences involving 2s, 3s, 5s and 10s, identify the missing element in a number sequence, and use digital technology to produce sequences by constant addition.
Measurement and Geometry
Students order shapes and objects, using informal units for a range of measures. They tell time to the quarter hour and use a calendar to identify the date, days, weeks and months included in seasons and other events. Students draw two-dimensional shapes, specify their features and explain the effects of one-step transformations. They recognise the features of three-dimensional objects. They interpret simple maps of familiar locations.
Statistics and Probability
Students collect data from relevant questions to create lists, tables and picture graphs with and without the use of digital technology. They interpret data in context. Students use everyday language to describe outcomes of familiar events.
