Version: v0.1, 29 September 2026. Status: draft for educator, accessibility and local-syllabus review. Ten daily lessons × 25 minutes; print/text aids; two-week formative check. This fortnight deliberately samples prior 0–20 knowledge and begins two-digit work; it does not fulfil the Year 1 requirement to represent/order numbers to at least 120.
Prepare once
Provide each pair with at least five teacher-prepared ten-sticks/ten-strips and 20 loose counters, a wipe board, a 0–50 track or the low-ink chart, and pencil/large marker. Avoid loose elastic bands and small objects where a learner's safety plan makes them unsuitable; use large tactile pieces, drawn dots, a digital counter controlled by the learner, or an adult-operated set. Provide a visual/tactile tens–ones mat, not color alone. Have paper so children can cover a distracting section of the chart. Working with bundles means each bundle must be known to contain ten; audit one bundle at the start.
Pair talk is an option, not a score. A learner may communicate a number by numeral, objects, pointing, speech, sign, AAC, tactile selection or directing an adult. Record the response mode and any prompts. Use home-language discussion where school support permits, but the English labels in this draft are not translations. These lessons do not prescribe a fixed learning style.
Curriculum: AC9M1N01 (recognise, represent and order numbers to at least 120 in multiple forms) and AC9M1N02 (partition one- and two-digit numbers in different ways, including tens and ones), checked in the official ACARA v9 download, retrieved 29 September 2026, pinned workbook SHA-256 db446882d2c00cf7c085a03e250e2442fda6c44011fc114680c46c1dc7a822c3. The exact codes, not the score on this pack, set the broader curriculum scope. Check the school's current state/local syllabus before teaching.
