New Zealand Curriculum Level 1

In a range of meaningful contexts, students will be engaged in thinking mathematically and statistically. They will solve problems and model situations that require them to:

National Standards

In contexts that require them to solve problems or model situations, students will be able to:

Year 1

Year 2

• use a range of counting, grouping, and equal-sharing strategies with whole numbers and fractions

• know the forward and backward counting sequences of whole numbers to 100
• know groupings with five, within ten, and with ten

• communicate and explain counting, grouping, and equal-sharing strategies, using words, numbers, and pictures

• generalise that the next counting number gives the result of adding one object to a set and that counting the number of objects in a set tells how many
• create and continue sequential patterns.

• apply counting-all strategies
• continue sequential patterns and number patterns based on ones.

• apply counting-on, counting-back, skip-counting, and simple grouping strategies to combine or partition whole numbers
• use equal sharing and symmetry to find fractions of sets, shapes, and quantities
• create and continue sequential patterns by identifying the unit of repeat
• continue number patterns based on ones, twos, fives, and tens.
