ES1 Combining and Separating Quantities 2022 NSW Syllabus 17 lessons

These 17 lessons focus on Combining and Separating Quantities for Early Stage One students, aligned with the 2022 NSW K-2 Syllabus. This series has been designed to assist busy teachers, including casual teachers, in delivering engaging and accessible instruction to their students.

They cover content including:

- addition and subtraction

- instructions to play games with an Aboriginal perspective

- comparing quantities

- number bonds

- counting and sharing

- building numbers with Rekenreks

- exploring numbers to ten

All lessons are hands on, using equipment already in the classroom or easily made resources to engage the students and apply the learning.

Six of the lessons have an Aboriginal perspective.

Bonus! I have included a list of Australian Literature to support teaching these outcomes.

These lessons are stand alone or can be combined to form a unit. Suitable for classroom teachers, learning support or casual teachers.

The following 2022 NSW syllabus outcomes are met with these lessons:

MAO-WM-01 develops understanding and fluency in mathematics through exploring and connecting mathematical concepts, choosing, and applying mathematical techniques to solve problems, and communicating their thinking and reasoning coherently and clearly.
