Mr Green's Farm

In this book Millie the Mathematician helps us learn about number and place value, and how to subitise small collections. We learn that we can recognise how many objects are in a small collection without having to count them. The reader is asked to recognise (i.e. subitise) the number of animals in a collection by looking at groupings that are familiar to them. This book addresses content from the Number and Algebra strand within the Number and place value sub-strand. The specific Australian Curriculum content descriptor addressed is: “Subitise small collections of objects.” This book also addresses the content descriptor “Connect number names, numerals and quantities, including zero, initially up to 10 and then beyond.”
