Late level 1 plan (term 2)

The Ministry is migrating nzmaths content to Tāhurangi.           
Relevant and up-to-date teaching resources are being moved to Tāhūrangi (tahurangi.education.govt.nz). 
When all identified resources have been successfully moved, this website will close. We expect this to be in June 2024. 
e-ako maths, e-ako Pāngarau, and e-ako PLD 360 will continue to be available.

Planning notes

This plan is a starting point for planning a mathematics and statistics teaching programme for a term. The resources listed cover about 50% of your teaching time. Further resources need to be added to meet the specific learning needs of your class, to support your local curriculum and to provide sufficient teaching for a full term.

Making Patterns

Level One
Geometry and Measurement
Units of Work
In this unit students explore patterns involving transformations of shapes. Students make and identify patterns that involve translation, reflection, and rotation. They make their own patterns and pictures to show the transformations, and discuss with others how they included the different...
  • Make patterns that involve translations, reflections, and rotations.
  • Identify translations, reflections, or rotations in patterns.
