• Mathematics: Level A achievement standards

  Number and Algebra

  Students observe the use of number within their daily life. They begin to respond to numbers in everyday experiences. Students demonstrate awareness of counting by responding to number rhymes, songs, stories and finger games. They experience and respond to ‘one for you,...

• Mathematics: Level D achievement standards

  Number and Algebra

  Students connect number names and numerals with sets of up to 10 elements. They match individual objects with counting sequences up to and back from 10. They recognise and point to numerals in and around the classroom, for example, numbers on a clock face. Students use concrete...

• Mathematics: Level 7 description

  In Level 7, students work with powers of whole numbers, use index notation, represent numbers as products of powers of prime numbers, and investigate square roots of perfect squares. They use number properties to assist with calculation and order, and to add and subtract integers. Students find...

• VCMMG078

  Use direct and indirect comparisons to decide which is longer, heavier or holds more, and explain reasoning in everyday language

  Elaborations

  • comparing objects directly, by placing one object against another to determine which is longer or by pouring from one container into the other to see which one holds more
  • using suitable language associated with measurement attributes, such as ‘tall’ and ‘taller’, ‘heavy’ and ‘heavier’, ‘holds more’ and ‘holds less’

  VCMMG078 | Mathematics | Foundation Level | Measurement and Geometry | Using units of measurement

• Mathematics: Level 3 achievement standards

  Number and Algebra

  Students count and order numbers to and from 10 000. They recognise the connection between addition and subtraction, and solve problems using efficient strategies for multiplication with and without the use of digital technology. Students recall addition and multiplication facts...
