Australian Curriculum V9 · Year 1 Mathematics
Year 1 Maths scope and sequence

How to use this sequence
Teach a concept, use a small amount of practice, then revisit it later rather than completing a whole strand in one block. Interleaving Number with Measurement, Space and Statistics helps keep earlier skills active.
Keep curriculum planning connected to actual learning
Planning is most useful when each item links to something the learner can actually be taught and assessed on. SkillrHub’s Year 1 catalogue connects curriculum codes to teaching resources, practice and tests so the plan can move directly into action.
