Background Information
The learning needs of students are to be considered when
determining the appropriate range of two- and three-digit
numbers.
Students should be encouraged to develop different
counting strategies, eg if they are counting a large number of
items, they can count out groups of ten and then count the
groups.
They need to learn correct rounding of numbers based on
the convention of rounding up if the last digit is 5 or more
and rounding down if the last digit is 4 or less.

Language
Students should be able to communicate using the following
language: count forwards, count backwards, number before,
number after, more than, less than, number line, number
chart, digit, zero, ones, groups of ten, tens, groups of one
hundred, hundreds, round to.
The word 'and' is used when reading a number or writing it
in words, eg five hundred and sixty three.
Develop confidence with number sequences from 100 by ones from any
starting point
count forwards or backwards by 1s, from a given 3-digit number
identify the numbers before & after a given 3-digit number
- describe the number before as 1 less than & the number after as 1 more
than a given number
Recognise, model, represent and order numbers to at least 1000
represent 3-digit numbers using objects, pictures, words & numerals

Celebrity head
Display a number line showing numbers from 1 to 100 so that all the students in the class can see
it. Place movable marker tabs at either end of the strip. One student wears a headpiece to which a
numeral card is attached. Ensure that the student does not see the number on the numeral card.
Ask the student to have the class help to identify the secret number. The class, however, can
respond only with a yes or no reply to each question. In response to the answers, the selected
student then moves the tabs along the number line to indicate the range within which the secret
number lies. Continue the process until the student is able to identify the number.
Variations
The price is right
Display a vertical numeral strip to the students. Ask one student to think of a number on the
numeral strip. The remainder of the class take turns to guess the number. After each guess, allow
the student to point to the nominated number on the number line. The student then states if the
guess is higher or lower than the number being thought of. Encourage the students to use the
responses from previous guesses when making the next guess.
Guess my number
Provide a calculator for each pair of students. Ask one student to enter a number into the
calculator and hide the screen. Instruct the partner to ask questions which will enable him or her
to guess the hidden number on the calculator.
This activity could be
modified by decreasing or

Grocery grab
Display a collection of grocery packages of varying weight up to 1 kilogram. Allow the students to
compare the weight of each item according to the number of grams indicated on each package.
Have the students record the weight of each item in grams. Instruct the students to then sequence
the items from lightest to heaviest.
Variation
Collect from catalogues pictures of items costing less than $1000 . Ensure the price of each item is
clearly indicated. Present the catalogue items to the students and ask them to sequence the items
in terms of cost.
Wipe out
Provide each student with a calculator. Ask the students to enter a specific three-digit number into
their calculators. Choose one of the digits from the number entered and ask the students to use an
arithmetical method to change the nominated digit to zero. For example, have the students enter
the numeral 268 in their calculator. Follow this by asking, How can you change the 6 to 0?

Straw javelin
Place masking tape on the floor to indicate a starting point. Organise the students into a line
behind the starting point. Have the students take turns to throw a straw as far as they can. Provide
the students with Unifix blocks which have been assembled into towers of ten, as well as single
blocks. The students then measure the distance the straw travelled by placing the Unifix blocks
along the floor from the starting point to the straw.
Variations
Change the activity from throwing a straw to other actions, such as taking a giant step from the
starting point and then measuring the distance of the steps using the Unifix blocks.
Organise the students into pairs. Provide each pair of students with lengths of string and ask
them to use the string to measure their arm span and their height. After the students have
completed measuring with the string, they place the string on the floor. Have the students use the
towers of ten Unifix blocks to record the length of the string.
Some students may require
one-on-one support to
complete this activity.

Three-dice game
Prepare a set of numeral cards for the numbers three to eighteen. Lay the cards face up in a line on
the desk or floor. Have the students take turns to roll three dice and add together the numbers
rolled, then take a corresponding numeral card. The game continues until all cards have been
taken. If the numeral card has already been taken, the players turn is forfeited.
Variations
Use a variety of dice, such as dot and numeral dice.
Provide each student with a set of numeral cards for the numbers three to eighteen. Have the
students take turns to roll three dice and find the total. Each time a student states the total of the
three dice, all students place a counter on the corresponding numeral card in their set. The game
continues until all numerals have been covered.

The beanstalk
This activity is best completed with a maximum of five students. Prepare Beanstalk base board
using the BLM and a pack of instruction cards. The instruction cards should state the direction in
which the student moves along the beanstalk, either up or down, and the number of spaces to
move, for example, go up three spaces. Commence the activity by instructing each student to
place a marker at position 10 on the beanstalk. In turns students take an instruction card, follow
the directions and move their marker accordingly along the beanstalk. The winner is the first
person to reach the castle at the top of the beanstalk. An option is to have the students record the

SUBSTRAND: Addition and Subtraction 2 KEY CONSIDERATIONS OVERVIEW
OUTCOMES
A student:
uses a range of strategies and informal recording methods
for addition and subtraction involving one- and two-digit
numbers MA1-5NA
It is appropriate for students in Stage 1 to use concrete
materials to model and solve problems, for exploration and
for concept building. Concrete materials may also help in
explanations of how solutions were obtained.
Addition and subtraction should move from counting and
combining perceptual objects, to using numbers as
replacements for completed counts with mental strategies,
to recordings that support mental strategies (such as jump,
split, partitioning and compensation).
Subtraction typically covers two different situations: 'taking
away' from a group, and 'comparison' (ie determining how
many more or less when comparing two groups). In
performing a subtraction, students could use 'counting on or
back' from one number to find the difference. The 'counting
on or back' type of subtraction is more difficult for students
to grasp than the 'taking away' type. Nevertheless, it is
important to encourage students to use 'counting on or back'
as a method of solving comparison problems once they are
confident with the 'taking away' type.
In Stage 1, students develop a range of strategies to aid quick
recall of number facts and to solve addition and subtraction
problems. They should be encouraged to explain their
strategies and to invent ways of recording their actions. It is
also important to discuss the merits of various strategies in
terms of practicality and efficiency.
Jump strategy on a number line an addition or subtraction
strategy in which the student places the first number on an
empty number line and then counts forward or backwards,
first by tens and then by ones, to perform a calculation. (The
number of jumps will reduce with increased understanding.)
Jump strategy method: eg 46 + 33

Jump strategy method: eg 79 33
Explore the connection between addition and subtraction
use concrete materials to model how addition and
subtraction are inverse operations
use related addition and subtraction number facts to at
least 20, eg 15 + 3 = 18, so 18 3 = 15 and 18 15 = 3
Solve simple addition and subtraction problems using a
range of efficient mental and written strategies
use and record a range of mental strategies to solve
addition and subtraction problems involving two-digit
numbers, including:
the jump strategy on an empty number line
the split strategy, eg record how the answer to 37 + 45 was
obtained using the split strategy
an inverse strategy to change a subtraction into an
addition, eg 54 38: start at 38, adding 2 makes 40, then
adding 10 makes 50, then adding 4 makes 54, and so the
answer is 2 + 10 + 4 = 16
select and use a variety of strategies to solve addition and
subtraction problems involving one- and two-digit numbers
- perform simple calculations with money, eg buying items
from a class shop and giving change (Problem Solving)
- check solutions using a different strategy (Problem Solving)
- recognise which strategies are more efficient and explain
why (Communicating, Reasoning)
- explain or demonstrate how an answer was obtained for
addition and subtraction problems, eg show how the answer
to 15 + 8 was obtained using a jump strategy on an empty
number line

Split strategy an addition or subtraction strategy in which
the student separates the tens from the units and adds or
subtracts each separately before combining to obtain the
final answer.
Split strategy method: eg 46 + 33

Inverse strategy a subtraction strategy in which the student
adds forward from the smaller number to obtain the larger
number, and so obtains the answer to the subtraction
calculation.
Inverse strategy method: eg 65 37
start at 37
add 3 to make 40
then add 20 to make 60
then add 5 to make 65
and so the answer is 3 + 20 + 5 = 28
An inverse operation is an operation that reverses the effect
of the original operation. Addition and subtraction are
inverse operations; multiplication and division are inverse
operations.

Language
language: plus, add, take away, minus, the difference
between, equals, is equal to, empty number line, strategy.
Some students may need assistance when two tenses are
used within the one problem, eg 'I had six beans and took
away four. So, how many do I have now?'
The word 'left' can be confusing for students, eg 'There were
five children in the room. Three went to lunch. How many
are left?' Is the question asking how many children are
remaining in the room, or how many children went to lunch?

OUTCOMES
A student:
measures, records, compares and estimates lengths and
distances using uniform informal units, metres and
centimetres MA1-9MG
Students should be given opportunities to apply their
understanding of measurement, gained through experiences
with the use of uniform informal units, to experiences with
the use of the centimetre and metre. They could make a
measuring device using uniform informal units before using a
ruler, eg using a length of 10 connecting cubes. This would
assist students in understanding that the distances between
marks on a ruler represent unit lengths and that the marks
indicate the endpoints of each unit.
When recording measurements, a space should be left
between the number and the abbreviated unit, eg 3 cm, not
3cm.
Refer also to background information in Length 1.

Language
language: length, distance, straight line, curved line, metre,

- use computer software to draw a line and use a simple graphic
as a uniform informal unit to measure its length
compare and order two or more shapes or objects according
to their lengths using an appropriate uniform informal unit
- compare the lengths of two or more objects that cannot be
moved or aligned
record length comparisons informally using drawings,
numerals and words, 7 by referring to the uniform informal
unit used
Recognise and use formal units to measure the lengths of
objects
recognise the need for formal units to measure lengths and
distances
use the metre as a unit to measure lengths and distances to
the nearest metre or half-metre
- explain and model, using concrete materials, that a metre-
length can be a straight line or a curved line
record lengths and distances using the abbreviation for metres

SUBSTRAND: 2D 2 KEY CONSIDERATIONS OVERVIEW
OUTCOMES
A student:
manipulates, sorts, represents, describes and explores two-
dimensional shapes, including quadrilaterals, pentagons,
hexagons and octagons MA1-15MG
In Stage 1, students need to have experiences involving
directions and turning. Discussions about what represents a
'full-turn', a 'half-turn' and a 'quarter-turn' will be necessary.
Relating this information to students physically may be
helpful, eg by playing games such as 'Simon Says' with Simon
saying to make turns.
Digital technologies such as computer drawing tools may use
the terms 'move', 'rotate' and 'flip horizontal', or various
other terms, to describe transformations. The icons for these
functions may assist students in locating the required
transformations.

Language
language: shape, twodimensional shape (2D shape), circle,
triangle, quadrilateral, square, rectangle, pentagon, hexagon,
octagon, orientation, features, symmetry, slide, flip, turn,
full-turn, half-turn, quarter-turn, clockwise, anti-clockwise.
In Stage 1, students refer to the transformations of shapes
using the terms 'slide', 'flip' and 'turn'. While in Stage 2,
students are expected to use the terms 'translate', 'reflect'
and 'rotate', respectively.
Linking the vocabulary of half-turns and quarter-turns to
students' experiences with clocks may be of benefit.
A shape is said to have line symmetry if matching parts are
produced when it is folded along a line of symmetry. Each
part represents the 'mirror image' of the other.
Describe and draw two-dimensional shapes, with and without the
use of digital technologies
use term 'two-dimensional' to describe plane (flat) shapes
make representations of 2D shapes in different orientations using
concrete materials
- combine & split single shapes & arrangements of shapes to form
new shapes, eg create a hexagon from six triangles
draw & name 2D shapes in different orientations, with & without
the use of digital technologies
- recognise that the name of a shape does not change if its size or
orientation in space is changed
Investigate the effect of one-step slides and flips, with and without
the use of digital technologies
identify a 1-step slide or flip of a single shape & use the terms
slide & flip to describe the movement of the shape
perform a 1-step slide or flip with a single shape
- recognise that sliding or flipping a shape does not change its size
or features
- describe the result of a 1-step slide or flip of a shape
record the result of performing 1-step slides & flips, with &
without the use of digital technologies
- copy & manipulate a shape using the computer functions for slide
& flip
make designs with line symmetry using paper-folding, pattern
blocks, drawings & paintings
- recognise connection between line symmetry & performing a flip
Identify and describe half-turns and quarter-turns
identify full, & -turns of a single shape & use the terms turn,
full-turn, turn & turn to describe the movement of the shape
identify & describe amounts of turn using terms anti/clockwise
perform full, & -turns with a single shape
- recognise that turning a shape does not change its size or features
- describe the result of a turn of a shape
record the result of performing full, & -turns of a shape, with
& without the use of digital technologies
- copy & manipulate a shape using the computer function for turn
determine the number of -turns required for a full-turn & the
number of -turns required for a full-turn
- connect the use of & -turns to the turn of the minute hand on
a clock for the passing of & -hours

Naming Shapes
Identify and name 2D shapes, including quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons and octagons.
Ensure that students understand that these shapes are grouped under the term two-
dimensional
Students should be encouraged to draw shapes on dot paper; identifying the number of sides and
corners of each shape.
Create a shape house; draw a large square and triangle, so you have the basis for a house shape.
Students then, trace pattern blocks, filling in the square section with smaller squares, the triangle
roof with triangles (facing upwards and downwards in order that the roof is filled) rectangle for
the door, hexagons/pentagons/circles/squares etc for the windows, a circle for a sunshine and a
rectangle chimney. Students then name the shapes that they used to complete their house.

3
Classifying Shapes
Students work in small groups. Provide each group with a range of 2D shapes. Each group must
name each of the shapes that they have and decide upon a way of classifying them into groups.
Each group needs to report back to the class; explaining how they classified their shapes and
which shapes they placed in each group.

Sliding and Flipping
Define the term slide:

Define the term flip:

Collect a variety of transparent coloured plastic 2D shapes, such as rectangles, squares,
rhombuses, parallelograms, hexagons and trapeziums. The teacher demonstrates and describes
what happens to a shape when it is flipped across a line (flip needs to be demonstrated with a
solid shape or a picture on an overhead). The teacher repeats to demonstrate what happens to a
shape it is slid.

In pairs, students choose a shape and practise flipping and sliding the shape. Students identify

how the shape was moved and draw what happens after the shapes crossed the dotted line.
Students hypothesise about what given shapes would look like if they were flipped across a line,
then draw what they believe the shape will look like.

5
Sliding and Flipping Again
Teacher provides students with a series of 2D pictures; each one in its original orientation and
then either flipped or slid. Students must identify the way in which the shape has been moved
from its original orientation.
Play concentration with shape and word cards demonstrating flips and slides. Students must
match a picture and word card correctly to keep the cards. The player with the most correct
matches wins.

6
Turning
Define the term turn:

Teacher demonstrates what happens to a shape when it is turned (half turn, quarter turn, full
turn):

Students use pattern blocks to trace and demonstrate a half turn, quarter turn, full turn; labelling
each appropriately.
Turn reference charts on
desks as needed.
pattern blocks, paper

7
Turning Again
Teacher defines and demonstrates the terms clockwise and anticlockwise, in relation to turning
a shape. Have students stand in a circle and walk clockwise and anticlockwise on command.
Have students trace, turn and trace shapes again, in both a clockwise and anticlockwise direction.
Have students label their drawings using arrows to indicate the direction in which the turn was
made.

SUBSTRAND: Data 2 KEY CONSIDERATIONS OVERVIEW
OUTCOMES
A student:
gathers and organises data, displays data in lists, tables and
picture graphs, and interprets the results MA1-17SP
Categorical variables can be separated into distinct groups or
categories, eg the different colours of smarties in a box, the
types of favourite fruit of class members.
A key indicating one-to-one correspondence in a picture
graph uses one symbol to represent one response/item,
eg = 1 flower.

Language

Identify a question of interest based on one categorical
variable and gather data relevant to the question
pose suitable questions that will elicit categorical answers
& gather the data, eg 'Which school sport is the most
popular with our class members?', 'How did each student in
our class get to school today?'
- predict the likely responses within data to be collected
- determine what data to gather in order to investigate a
question of interest, eg colour, gender, type of animal, sport
Collect, check and classify data
collect data on familiar topics through questioning, eg 'How
many students are in our class each day this week?'
- use tally marks to assist with data collection
identify categories of data & use them to sort data, eg sort
data collected on attendance by day of the week & into boys
& girls present
Create displays of data using lists, tables and picture graphs
and interpret them
represent data in a picture graph using a baseline, equal
spacing, same-sized symbols & a key indicating 1-to-1
correspondence
- identify misleading representations of data in a picture
graph, eg where the symbol used to represent 1 item is
shown in different sizes or where symbols are not equally
spaced
- use digital technologies to create picture graphs
display data using lists & tables
-use displays to communicate information gathered in other
learning areas, eg data gathered in a unit on families or local
places
interpret information presented in lists, tables & picture
graphs
- describe data displayed in simple tables & picture graphs

Posing the Question
Discuss with the students possible topics that would be suitable and interesting to collecting data
for to graph, for example, student names. Ask the students what sort of data could be collected
about the names of students in the class and have them pose suitable questions, for example, How
many letters does each persons name have?
Brainstorm as many interest topics as possible that the students would like to collect information
about. Discuss the appropriateness of topics with regard to ability to collect data and create a
shortlist of the most popular topics.
In groups have students pose a question for each chosen topic area. Groups share these with the
class, the teacher recording each suggested question. After all groups have shared, as a class
decide on which question is the best/most suitable for each topic.

Collecting Data
Using the topics and questions decided upon in the previous lesson, divide students into groups,
giving each an equal number of questions to collect data on.
Revise the use of tally marks.

Have students collect the data for the questions that their group has been given, using tally marks.

Picture Graphs
Define picture graphs:

Using the above example, provide representations of the same graph where the pictures are not
the same size or equally spaced. Discuss with the students the implications of misleading data
presentation. Devise a set of rules for creating a picture graph.
Using the results from the previous lesson, have the students create their own picture graph for
one of the topic areas that they collected data for. Symbols used by students should represent
one-to-one correspondence of data collected.
