Description
This unit describes the skills and knowledge to locate and recognise, use simple problem-solving strategies and convey mathematical information about numbers in highly familiar situations.
It requires the ability to compare, add and subtract whole numbers into the 100s in highly familiar situations, and roughly check the reasonableness of process outcomes with support.
The required outcomes described in this unit contribute to the achievement of Australian Core Skills Framework indicators for Numeracy at Level 1: 1.09, 1.10, 1.11. At this level, individuals may work alongside an expert/mentor where prompting and advice can be provided.
No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
