Core concept: We can make connections between collections. There are many ways to make 10 and 20.

Have each student call out one number in the sequence. When the number sequence reaches zero, the student who says ‘zero’ is zapped and sits down. Continue the game with students commencing the backward count from 20 again. observations of game-based learning opportunity (MAO-WM-01, MAE-RWN-01).

Tell a story about a lyrebird named Lowanna who needs 20 natural materials to make a nest for egg laying. Reinforce that the lyrebird is a ground-dwelling Australian bird that builds a dome-shaped nest which is made from sticks, feathers and pieces of palm leaf.

Demonstrate seesaw arms or hefting by holding one object in each hand and with arms outstretched model which object feels heavier (pulls arms down) or lighter (pulls arm up) or about the same (even arms).

Compare 2 masses directly by hefting. Ask students to hold the nest they created, and the nest created by another pair made of a different natural material to compare their mass. Support students to use comparative language when hefting using words such as light, lighter, lightest, heavy, heavier, heaviest.
