Learning Continuum of Numeracy (Version 8.4)

This element involves students making sense of the space around them.

Students visualise, identify and sort shapes and objects, describing their key features in the environment. They use symmetry, shapes and angles to solve problems in authentic contexts and interpret maps and diagrams, using scales, legends and directional language to identify and describe routes and locations. In developing and acting with numeracy, students:

  • visualise 2D shapes and 3D objects
  • interpret maps and diagrams.

Level 1a

Students:

Visualise 2D shapes and 3D objects

sort or match objects according to their features

Interpret maps and diagrams

demonstrate awareness of position of self and objects in relation to everyday contexts
