Our Year 1 Maths tutors provide targeted support to help students build foundational skills that align with the curriculum outcomes. We assist students in understanding key concepts in numbers, measurement, geometry, and simple data handling. Our approach includes hands-on activities, using physical and virtual materials to model and solve problems, and developing a strong number sense. We help students achieve outcomes such as recognizing, representing, and ordering numbers to at least 120, using basic addition and subtraction strategies, and comparing objects based on measurable attributes like length and capacity. By aligning our tutoring to the curriculum outcomes, we ensure that students are not only meeting the required standards but also building confidence in their mathematical abilities.
Number:
Students learn to recognize, represent, and order numbers up to 120, using tools like number lines and charts. They partition one- and two-digit numbers, practice skip counting, and solve simple addition and subtraction problems up to 20, building fluency and understanding of part-part-whole relationships.
Algebra:
Focused on pattern recognition, students engage with skip counting sequences and identify repeating patterns using numbers, shapes, and objects, which helps develop their mathematical reasoning and problem-solving skills.
Measurement:
Students compare and order objects by length, mass, capacity, and duration using informal units, measure objects with everyday items like blocks or string, and grasp basic time concepts. This enhances their skills in estimation and understanding of measurable attributes.
Space:
Students recognize, compare, and classify shapes and objects in their environment and learn to follow and give directions for moving objects within a space, fostering spatial awareness and a foundational understanding of geometry.
Statistics:
Students collect and record data using simple methods like lists and tally marks, create basic data displays, and interpret frequencies, building foundational data literacy and understanding how to represent and compare information.
