Year One 2017 |
||||
| Victorian Curriculum | Success Criteria- Know, Understand, Do | Novice | Competent | Expert |
| Use direct and indirect comparisons to decide which is longer, heavier or holds more, and explain reasoning in everyday language (VCMMG078)
Foundation |
Recognise objects of different length | |||
| Use opposite terms to compare objects; for example, tall/ short | ||||
| Use language of approximation; for example, about, almost, nearly | ||||
| Describe measurement attributes of the same object;
for example, tall, short |
||||
| Find objects clearly longer than or shorter than a given object | ||||
| Measure and compare the lengths, masses and capacities of pairs of objects using uniform informal units (VCMMG095)
Year One
|
Use language of comparison; for example, longer, shorter, wider, taller | |||
| Describe lengths of objects using comparative terms; for example, longer, taller | ||||
| Identify objects of equal length | ||||
| Compare length of two objects using indirect methods; for example, using a string along two curved paths, to compare two lengths | ||||
| Estimate and measures using informal units such as paces for length, to compare the lengths of objects | ||||
| Find objects bigger/smaller/equal to a given object or unit of measure | ||||
| Compare and order several shapes and objects based on length, area, volume and capacity using appropriate uniform informal units (VCMMG115)
Year Two
|
Estimate and compare straight or curved objects to decide which is longer/shorter | |||
| Order sets of objects by their length | ||||
| Distinguish the different length attributes of an object (length, width, height) | ||||
| Compare the length of objects by lining up the base | ||||
| Recognise the need to avoid gaps or overlaps when measuring | ||||
| Accurately measure the length, width and height of objects using informal uniform units | ||||
| Use ‘between’ to describe measurements; for example, the book’s width is between 7 and 8 hand spans | ||||
| Understand that the use of different attributes can lead to different results when ordering; for example, this jug is taller than that vase, but it holds less | ||||
| Measure, order and compare objects using familiar metric units of length, area, mass and capacity(VCMMG140)
Year Three
|
Make increasingly accurate estimates of measurements using informal units and standard units (centimetres and metres) | |||
| Make estimations using personal units, such as pace length and arm span, and comparison with metres using formal units, such as metres and centimetres | ||||
| Make objects to a specified length using metres and centimetres | ||||
| Recognise and use standard metric measures in appropriate contexts. | ||||
