1. Statistics: The science of collecting, analyzing, visualizing, and interpreting data can inform understanding and decision making. · Skills & Procedures

Pictograms and tally charts: Interpret and construct simple pictograms, tally charts, block diagrams, and simple tables

Comparing Time Durations: Compare durations of events and calculate the time taken by particular events or tasks

Days, Weeks, Months & Years: Recognise and use language relating to dates, including days of the week, weeks, months, and years
Sequence intervals of time: Compare and sequence intervals of time

Patterns & Sequences: Order and arrange combinations of mathematical objects in patterns and sequences

Measurable Attributes of Objects: Describe and identify measurable attributes of objects such as length, height, weight, and capacity; use comparative language (longer, shorter, heavier, lighter, more, less)
Comparing and ordering measurements: Compare and order lengths, mass, and capacity and record results using >, <, and =

Measuring with different units: Measure the length of an object using two different length units and describe how the measurements relate to the size of the unit chosen

Comparing lengths by measuring: Measure to determine how much longer one object is than another, expressing the length difference in terms of a standard length unit
Measuring & Plotting Lengths: Generate measurement data by measuring lengths to the nearest whole unit and display the data on a line plot

2-D shapes: Recognise and name common 2-D shapes (circles, triangles, rectangles including squares)
2-D shapes (age 6+): Identify and describe properties of 2-D shapes including the number of sides and line symmetry in a vertical line
Composing Shapes: Compose two-dimensional shapes (rectangles, squares, trapezoids, triangles, half-circles, quarter-circles) to create composite shapes, and compose new shapes from the composite shape
Sorting 2-D and 3-D shapes: Compare and sort common 2-D and 3-D shapes and everyday objects by their properties

What Is a Half?: Recognise, find, and name a half as one of two equal parts of an object, shape, or quantity
Understanding angles: Recognise angles as a property of shape or a description of a turn

3-D shapes: Recognise and name common 3-D shapes (cubes, cuboids, pyramids, spheres, cylinders, cones)

Calculating with measurements: Measure, compare, add, and subtract lengths (m/cm/mm), mass (kg/g), and volume/capacity (l/ml) using standard units
Comparing groups: more or fewer: Compare two groups of objects to determine which has more, fewer, or whether they are equal, using matching and counting strategies
Division as equal sharing: Understand division as sharing equally into groups or as grouping (how many groups of a given size can be made)
Comparing Capacity: Compare and describe capacity and volume using language such as full, empty, more than, less than, half full
Representing numbers with objects: Represent numbers using objects, pictorial representations, and the number line
Counting in 2s: Count in multiples of 2, 5, and 10 (skip counting)
Counting Within 1,000: Count within 1000, including skip-counting by 5s, 10s, and 100s
Counting forwards and backwards: Count forwards and backwards in steps of 3 from 0

Addition as combining or putting together two: Understand addition as combining or putting together two groups to find the total
Sorting into categories: Classify objects into given categories, count the number in each category, and sort the categories by count

Subtraction as taking away or separating: Understand subtraction as taking away or separating from a group to find how many remain
Addition and subtraction strategies: Use counting on and counting back as strategies for addition and subtraction
One-to-one counting: One-to-one correspondence when counting objects: each object is paired with exactly one number name
