This term's new math learning!

Year 0

Number structures

• Reading and writing whole numbers up to 20

• Counting forwards or backwards from any whole number between 1 and 10, and then between 1 and 20

• Comparing and ordering whole numbers up to 20 and ordinal numbers up to 5th, using words

• Locating whole numbers on a fully labelled number line

• Subitising (recognising without counting) the number of objects in a small collection (3–5 objects) 

• Counting collections of up to 10 objects using one-to-one correspondence

• Recognising when a quantity is greater than, less than, or the same as another quantity

Operations

• Memorising addition and subtraction facts up to 5 (e.g. 2 + 3 = 5)

• Naming the number before or after a given number in the counting sequence up to 10

Year 1

Operations

• Multiplying and dividing using equal grouping or counting for products and dividends within 20

Rational Numbers

• Recognising and representing halves and quarters as fractions of sets, quantities, and regions, using equal parts of the whole

• Finding a half or quarter of a set using equal sharing and grouping

• Connecting ½ and ¼ through halving

Financial Mathematics

• Recognising and knowing the value of New Zealand denominations of currency (i.e, coins and notes)

Year 2

Rational Numbers

• Recognising, reading, writing (using symbols and words), and representing halves, thirds, and quarters (⅓, ¼, 2⁄4, ½, ⅔, ¾) as fractions of sets, quantities, and regions, using equal parts of the whole 

• Recognising the equivalence of 2/4 and ½

• Directly comparing two fractions involving halves, thirds, or quarters

Financial Mathematics

• Recognising and ordering New Zealand denominations according to their value, making groups of 'like' denominations, and calculating their value

• Combining denominations of currency (either all notes or all coins) to make a particular value

Year 3

Rational Numbers

• Reading, writing, and representing fractions of sets, quantities, and measurements on a number line, and of regions, using small denominators 

• Counting in unit fractions up to 1

• Comparing unit fractions with denominators up to 12

• Comparing non-unit fractions with the same denominator up to 12

• Identifying when two fractions are equivalent, using representations

Financial Mathematics

• Representing currency values of mixed dollars and cents without using decimal notation (e.g. $2 and 50 cents)

• Making amounts of money using one- and two-dollar coins and 5-, 10-, 20-, 50-, and 100-dollar notes

• Using addition and subtraction to give change

Year 0

Shapes

•  Identifying, sorting by one attribute, and describing

familiar 2D shapes, including triangles, circles, and rectangles (including squares)

Pathways

• Following instructions to move to a familiar location or locate an object

Year 1

Shapes

• Identifying, describing, and sorting by one attribute familiar 2D and 3D shapes presented in different orientations, including cubes, cylinders, and spheres

Spatial reasoning

• Composing a compound shape using smaller shapes by trial and error, and decomposing a shape into smaller shapes

Pathways

• Using positional language to describe the position and movement of objects (e.g. above, below, left, right, in- front, behind, top, bottom, inside, outside, on, under, next to)

• Using pictures, diagrams, or stories to describe the positions of objects and places.

Year 2

Shapes

• Identifying, describing, visualising, and sorting 2D and 3D shapes, including ovals, semicircles, polygons (e.g. hexagons, pentagons), rectangular prisms (cuboids), pyramids, and cones, using the attributes of shapes

Spatial reasoning

• Flipping, sliding, and turning 2D shapes to make a pattern or compose a shape

Pathways

• Following and giving instructions to move to a different location, using direction, distances (e.g. number of steps), and half and quarter turns

• Interpreting diagrams to describe the positions of objects and places in relation to other objects and places.

Year 3

Shapes

• Identifying, describing, visualising and sorting regular polygons with up to 10 sides

Spatial reasoning

• Recognising lines of symmetry in patterns or pictures, and creating or completing symmetrical patterns or pictures

Pathways

• Following and creating a sequence of step-by-step instructions for moving

people or objects to a different location, including half and quarter turns and the distance to be travelled

• Using simple maps to locate objects and places relative to other objects and places.
