INTRODUCTION
Basic number facts and the four operations are a critical foundation in primary school
mathematics programs, enabling students to understand challenging computation and
mathematical concepts presented in everyday contexts (ACARA, 2014; Reys et al, 2012: 196). The
Mathematics Curriculum, devised by the Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting
Authority (ACARA), aims to ensure students are confident, creative users and communicators of
mathematics, able to investigate, represent and interpret situations in their personal and work
lives and as active citizens (ACARA, 2014). Learning programs should be designed to enable
students to develop a clear understanding of mathematical concepts for problem solving, as well
as identify the applicability of mathematics in other disciplines (ACARA, 2014).
The accompanying unit plan has been developed for a class of Year Two students, consisting of
fourteen girls and nine boys. The school is situated in a higher socio-economic metropolitan area,
with the majority of students from English speaking backgrounds. Despite similarities in students
biological ages, the class demonstrates disparities in their mathematical capabilities. Subsequently,
it was imperative to incorporate tailored support and extension activities, differentiating teaching
to address the individualized learning needs of students to comply with Standard 1.5 (AITSL,
2014).
This unit plan addresses the Number and Algebra content strand outlined in the Year Two
learning scope devised by ACARA. Key content descriptors of the strand include: [recognising,
modelling, representing and ordering] numbers to at least 1000 (ACMNA027); [exploring] the
connection between addition and subtraction (ACMNA029); [solving] simple addition and
subtraction problems using a range of efficient mental and written strategies (ACMNA030); and
[solving] problems by using number sentences for addition or subtraction (ACMNA036) (ACARA,
2014). According to Reys et al (2012: 196-197), children need to understand the properties that
apply to each operation and the relationship between operations...[so that] children not only know
how to add, subtract, multiply and divide but know when to apply each operation in a problem
3
solving situation.
In the previous unit, students have explored the Patterns and Algebra strand, strengthening their
subitising skills, whilst describing patterns within numbers and isolating missing elements in
mathematical problems. Students have developed the capacity to categorise objects according to
their attributes, sorting different concrete materials into groups and classifying the objects by
their type, material, colour, size and shape.
Ultimately, the main objective of this unit plan is to deepen students existing knowledge of
patterns and classifications, whilst developing their understanding of basic number facts and the
operations, with a primary focus on addition and subtraction. Students will progress from utilizing
concrete materials in computation, to developing pictorial or abstract levels of understanding.
Furthermore, they will gain an appreciation of the mathematical language associated with
operations, as well as the applicability of each operation in a problem-solving situation (Reys et al,
2012: 197).

CONCLUSION
According to MacLellan (2001), children establish a foundational understanding of mathematics
and its application in everyday contexts, prior to formal education. This knowledge is
underpinned by each childs individual experiences within these informal contexts. Thus,
students must develop a formal understanding of mathematical language and reasoning,
utilizing concrete, pictorial and abstract computation. Once students have demonstrated
experience with concrete situations, as well as the ability to count and apply mathematical
language in problem-solving situations, they may develop an understanding of basic number
facts and the four operations (Reys et al, 2012: 197).
The Position Paper on the Practice of Assessing Mathematics Learning, compiled by the
Australian Association of Mathematics Teachers (AAMT), argues that assessment is undertaken
to provide information about students learning and/or their attitudes to learning and doing
mathematics (cited in Reys et al, 2012: 67). Further, it is imperative the plan incorporates a
range of individual, small group and whole group assessments, to cater for a variety of learning
styles and needs. Assessment may be organised either formatively, assessment for learning, or
summatively, assessment of learning (Stiggins, 2002). This unit plan primarily utilizes formative
assessment pieces, incorporating a combination of teacher observations, in-class assignments,
homework and performance tasks to illustrate student learning. However, a summative
assessment is conducted in the initial lesson to identify students existing knowledge and
capabilities, enabling the teaching program to be adapted to ensure each student reaches their
maximum potential in the unit (Reys et al, 2012: 69).
The Australian Association of Mathematics Teachers (2006) suggests that teaching in
mathematics classrooms shift from a traditional behaviourist approach to a constructivist
approach. Through actively involving students in the learning process, students may exercise
metacognition, developing awareness of their strengths and weaknesses, as well as deepening
their understanding of maths (Reys et al, 2012: 24). Discussions will be conducted in pairs and
shared with the broader group to gauge understanding of the topic. This approach facilitates
15
higher-level thought processing, advancing student knowledge of number facts and operations
through encouraging explanation of computational processes and the generalisation of the
topics underlying principles in other mathematical strands (Reys et al, 2012: 73).
Observation of class discussions and activities will be the primary assessment method utilized,
as it facilitates continual refinement to lesson structure in response to student knowledge and
engagement. Particular attention will be issued to the computational strategies children adopt
to solve addition and subtraction problems, as well as their capacity to verbalise their reasoning
behind the methods selected. Anecdotal notes of these observations may be used for individual
student assessment, reporting to parents and guardians, as well as a source for future planning
(Reys et al, 2012: 72).
Ultimately, this unit plan will broaden and deepen students understanding of the Number and
Place Value strand in the ACARA curriculum. The primary objective of the lessons is to progress
students understanding of mathematical language, basic number facts and the use of addition
and subtraction operations, using a variety of concrete, pictorial and abstract representations
(Reys et al, 2012: 190). Future unit plans could broaden student knowledge of operations,
introducing the concepts of multiplication and division.

APPENDIX FIVE Domino Addition Matching Game (Super Teacher Worksheets, 2015)
Domino - Addition
Matching Game
This game is played like the memory match card game that many children are familiar with. It is
designed to reinforce their understanding of basic addition.
Materials:
Domino cards and addition fact cards (pages 2-5)
Set up:
Copy the cards on card stock so students cannot see through the paper
Cut the cards on the dotted lines
Laminate the cards, if desired
Note: Use only the first two pages of cards for addition facts with sums up to 9.
Use all 4 pages of cards for addition facts with sums up to 18
How to Play:
Lay all of the cards upside-down on the table and mix them up.
Players will try to flip pairs of matching cards.
example: The card
matches the card
Player 1 flips two cards. If the cards match, he or she gets to keep both cards. If the cards
do not match, then the cards are flipped back upside-down.
Then, player 2 gets a turn to try to flip matching cards. Players alternate until all cards have
been removed from the game.
When the game is over, the player with the most cards is the winner.
