WS03 - The most popular use of the play space

Technologies: Digital Technologies, Years 1 and 2 Mathematics, Year 2

By the end of Year 2 students describe the purpose of familiar products, services and environments, including digital systems. They represent and process data in different ways and follow and describe basic algorithms involving a sequence of steps and branching to show how simple digital solutions meet a need for known users. For each of the 2 prescribed technologies contexts they identify the features and uses of technologies and create designed solutions. Students select design ideas based on their personal preferences. They access and use the basic features of common digital tools to create, locate and share content, and collaborate and communicate design ideas using models and drawings. Students safely produce designed or digital solutions and recognise that digital tools may store their personal data online.

 

By the end of Year 2 students show how simple digital solutions meet a need for known users. Students represent and process data in different ways. They follow and describe basic algorithms involving a sequence of steps and branching. With assistance, students access and use digital systems for a purpose. They use the basic features of common digital tools to create, locate and share content, and to collaborate, following agreed behaviours. Students recognise that digital tools may store their personal data online.

By the end of Year 2, students order and represent numbers to at least 1000, apply knowledge of place value to partition, rearrange and rename two- and three-digit numbers in terms of their parts, and regroup partitioned numbers to assist in calculations. They use mathematical modelling to solve practical additive and multiplicative problems, including money transactions, representing the situation and choosing calculation strategies. Students identify and represent part-whole relationships of halves, quarters and eighths in measurement contexts. They describe and continue patterns that increase and decrease additively by a constant amount and identify missing elements in the pattern. Students recall and demonstrate proficiency with addition and subtraction facts within 20 and multiplication facts for twos.

 

They use uniform informal units to measure and compare shapes and objects. Students determine the number of days between events using a calendar and read time on an analog clock to the hour, half hour and quarter hour. They compare and classify shapes, describing features using formal spatial terms. Students locate and identify positions of features in two-dimensional representations and move position by following directions and pathways.

 

They use a range of methods to collect, record, represent and interpret categorical data in response to questions.

Statistics

AC9M2ST01

acquire data for categorical variables through surveys, observation, experiment and using digital tools; sort data into relevant categories and display data using lists and tables

Statistics

AC9M2ST02

create different graphical representations of data using software where appropriate; compare the different representations, identify and describe common and distinctive features in response to questions

2. Provides several categories for the survey.

 

3. Selects the methods of data collection.

4. Plans for how the data will be recorded and displayed.

 

5. Interprets the data and uses counting to identify the most and least popular category.

6. Constructs a tally sheet to record and organise the results of the survey.

 

7. Records the data in groups of 5.

8. Uses a picture graph to display the data, with each dot representing one student's choice of category.
