Shape and Space

1..1.1

Spatial awareness • explore, discuss, develop and use the vocabulary of spatial relations • give and follow simple directions within classroom and school settings

1..1.2

2-D shapes • sort, describe, compare and name 2-D shapes: square, rectangle, triangle, circle, semicircle • construct and draw 2-D shapes • combine and partition 2-D shapes • identify halves of 2-D shapes • identify and discuss the use of 2-D shapes in the environment

1..1.3

3-D shapes • describe, compare and name 3-D shapes, including cube, cuboid, cylinder and sphere • discuss the use of 3-D shapes in the environment • solve and complete practical tasks and problems involving 2-D and 3-D shapes • explore the relationship between 2-D and 3-D shapes.

1.SS.1.4

Symmetry • identify line symmetry in shapes and in the environment • fold shapes in half, blob and fold paintings • complete shapes or pictures symmetrically collect and sort objects on the basis of symmetry.

1.SS.1.5

Angles • explore and recognise angles in the environment investigate things that turn: door handles, wheels make full, half and quarter turns in yard or hall investigate angles as corners; use a right angle made from card to ‘measure’ corners on 2-D shapes; discuss relate square corner to quarter turn.

Data

1..1.1

Representing and interpreting data • sort and classify objects by two and three criteria • represent and interpret data in two, three or four rows or columns using real objects, models and pictures

Algebra

1..1.1

Extending and using patterns • recognise pattern, including odd and even numbers • explore and use patterns in addition facts • understand the use of a frame to show the presence of an unknown number

Number

1..1.2

Comparing and ordering • compare equivalent and non-equivalent sets 0-20 • order sets of objects by number • use the language of ordinal number, first to tenth

1..1.3

Place Value • explore, identify and record place value 0-99

1..1.4a

Operations - Addition • develop an understanding of addition by combining or partitioning sets, use concrete materials 0-20 • explore, develop and apply the commutative, associative and zero properties of addition • develop and/or recall mental strategies for addition facts within 20 • construct number sentences and number stories; solve problems involving addition within 20 • add numbers without and with renaming within 99 • explore and discuss repeated addition and group counting

1..1.4b

Operations - Subtraction - develop an understanding of subtraction as deducting, as complementing and as difference 0-20 - develop and/or recall mental strategies for subtraction 0-20 - construct number sentences and number stories; solve problems involving subtraction 0-20 - estimate differences within 99 - subtract numbers without renaming within 99 - use the symbols +, - , = - solve one-step problems involving addition or subtraction.

1..1.5

Fractions • establish and identify half of sets to 20

Measures

1..1.1

Length • estimate, compare, measure and record length using non-standard units • select and use appropriate non-standard measuring units and instruments • estimate, measure and record length using standard unit (the metre) • solve and complete practical tasks and problems involving length

1..1.2

Weight • estimate, compare, measure and record weight using non-standard units • select and use appropriate non-standard measuring units and instruments • estimate, measure and record weight using standard unit (the kilogram) and solve simple problems

1..1.3

Capacity • estimate, compare, measure and record capacity using non-standard units • select and use appropriate non-standard measuring units and instruments • estimate, measure and record capacity using standard unit (the litre) and solve simple problems

1..1.4

Time • use the vocabulary of time to sequence events • read and record time using simple devices • read time in hours and half-hours on 12-hour analogue clock • read day, date and month using calendar

1..1.5

Money (use up to introduction of the euro) • recognise, exchange and use coins up to the value of 50p • calculate how many items may be bought with a given sum.

1..1.6

Money - euro • recognise, exchange and use coins up to the value of 50 cents • calculate how many items may be bought with a given sum.
