Not a worksheet
These content descriptions ask for an investigation, a modelling cycle, an algorithm or a hands-on comparison. A printable sheet is the wrong tool for them, so we pair them with nothing rather than with something that looks close.
AC9MFN02 — Recognise the size of a small collection at a glance (subitising).
Subitising is recognizing a quantity WITHOUT counting, which is a thing a teacher watches a child do. A sheet can only ask for the number, and then the child is free to count.
AC9MFN06 — Represent practical equal-sharing and grouping situations.
At Foundation this is hands-on work with materials. Our sharing sheet is a picture of up to 12 objects, which starts where this description ends.
