Abstract | This study examined how opportunities to incorporate numeracy across different primary curriculum areas and grade levels are highlighted in the Australian Curriculum v9.0. A document analysis approach was used to track the numeracy opportunities in the document across different curriculum areas and grade levels. The results showed that Science has the most identified numeracy opportunities across all grade levels, with 43 occurrences. Findings also showed Statistics as the most prominent mathematics content strand suggested as numeracy opportunities, followed by Space. The study provides examples of missed numeracy opportunities in underrepresented curriculum areas. |
