1. Identify whole numbers and money up to one thousand

1.1 Read and name whole numbers and money amounts up to 1000 in highly familiar workplace documents and tasks

1.2 Demonstrate understanding of place value and the role of zero

1.3 Recognise and understand halves

2. Undertake simple mathematical processes

2.1 Organise numbers in size order and compare whole number and money amounts up to 1000

2.2 Count in number groups

2.3 Add and subtract whole numbers and money up to 1000

2.4 Describe links between operations of addition and subtraction

3. Check and communicate results

3.1 Check reasonableness of outcome with prompting and support

3.2 Record numerical information and communicate the result of the task using informal language and symbolism

Evidence of the ability to:

recognise and name whole number and money amounts up to one thousand

recognise half

add and subtract two digit whole numbers.

Note: Where a specific volume and/or frequency is not specified, evidence must be provided at least once.

Evidence of the following knowledge must be demonstrated:

links between addition and subtraction

place value and role of zero.

Assessment texts and tasks reflect those typically found in the workplace.

Advice and support is available.

Culturally appropriate processes and techniques suited to the language, literacy and numeracy capacity of individuals and the work being performed must be used.

Reasonable adjustments can be made to ensure equity in assessment for people with disabilities.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements, have a sound knowledge of the ACSF and have demonstrable expertise in the vocational contextualisation and assessment of the core skill - numeracy.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
