VU23493 - Recognise, copy and use numbers and money from 1 to 50
Overview
This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required by EAL learners to recognise and copy numbers from 1 to 50 and recognise common monetary values related to highly familiar activities.
The outcomes described in this unit relate to:
- the Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF). They partly contribute to the achievement of ACSF indicators for Reading Speaking and Numeracy at Pre level 1, and
- the ISLPR (International Second Language Proficiency Ratings) descriptors for Speaking, Listening and Reading. They partly contribute to the achievement of Speaking 0+, Reading 0+.
This unit applies to learners from language backgrounds other than English who may be preliterate in their first language and who are at the beginning stages of numeracy.
