Flowers in My Garden

In this book Millie the Mathematician helps to sort and classify flowers in her garden based on their colour. She helps us represent the number of each type of flower in tables and graphs. We also learn the connection between the written name of a number, its numeral and its quantity. This book addresses the content from the Number and Algebra strand within the Patterns and algebra sub-strand of the Australian Curriculum: Mathematics. The specific Australian Curriculum content descriptor addressed is: “Sort and classify familiar objects and explain the basis for these classifications. Copy, continue and create patterns with objects and drawings”.
