Foundation maths lessons for the first year of school, delivered as slide decks you present straight to the whiteboard. The four topics cover counting and number recognition, patterns and sorting, shapes and space, and measurement and comparison, giving early learners guided practice naming numbers in sequence, sorting familiar shapes and objects, describing position, and deciding which of two things is longer, heavier or holds more.
Every lesson is aligned to the Australian Curriculum v9.0, and the objectives each deck covers are listed alongside it, so you can see at a glance where it fits in your term plan. Slides move from a warm-up into explicit teaching and guided practice, which suits the short, structured bursts that work best with Foundation students.
Present a lesson as it is, or open it in Chalkie to adapt the slides first: change the numbers, swap examples for ones your class knows, or trim slides to fit your timetable. Either way, these Foundation maths lessons take most of the slide-building off your plate.
