Get Ready For Mathematics – A Year One Numeracy Activity Book

The Get Ready For Mathematics – A Year One Numeracy Activity Book is the perfect resource to develop your child’s numeracy skills in year one. It includes activities for all of the Australian Curriculum Standards for mathematics at a year one level. Children use whiteboard markers, playdough, tweezers, pom poms and dice to develop their foundation numeracy skills. The pages are flexible enough that other loose parts materials could be used.

Set up is easy just print and put activities into plastic sleeves and into a binder or print off activities to use during small group lessons. I recommend using good quality plastic sleeves to enable the whiteboard marker to come off with ease.

AC9M1N01 – recognise, represent and order numbers to at least 120 using physical and virtual materials, numerals, number lines and charts

AC9M1N02 – partition one- and two-digit numbers in different ways using physical and virtual materials, including partitioning two-digit numbers into tens and ones

AC9M1N03 – quantify sets of objects, to at least 120, by partitioning collections into equal groups using number knowledge and skip counting

AC9M1N04 – add and subtract numbers within 20, using physical and virtual materials, part-part-whole knowledge to 10 and a variety of calculation strategies

AC9M1N05 – use mathematical modelling to solve practical problems involving additive situations including simple money transactions; represent the situations with diagrams, physical and virtual materials, and use calculation strategies to solve the problem

AC9M1N06 – use mathematical modelling to solve practical problems involving equal sharing and grouping; represent the situations with diagrams, physical and virtual materials, and use calculation strategies to solve the problem

AC9M1A01 – recognise, continue and create pattern sequences, with numbers, symbols, shapes and objects, formed by skip counting, initially by twos, fives and tens

AC9M1A02 – recognise, continue and create repeating patterns with numbers, symbols, shapes and objects, identifying the repeating unit

AC9M1M01 – compare directly and indirectly and order objects and events using attributes of length, mass, capacity and duration, communicating reasoning

AC9M1M02 – measure the length of shapes and objects using informal units, recognising that units need to be uniform and used end-to-end

AC9M1M03 – describe the duration and sequence of events using years, months, weeks, days and hours

AC9M1SP01 – make, compare and classify familiar shapes; recognise familiar shapes and objects in the environment, identifying the similarities and differences between them

AC9M1SP02 – give and follow directions to move people and objects to different locations within a space

AC9M1ST01 – acquire and record data for categorical variables in various ways including using digital tools, objects, images, drawings, lists, tally marks and symbols

AC9M1ST02 – represent collected data for a categorical variable using one-to-one displays and digital tools where appropriate; compare the data using frequencies and discuss the findings
