quantify sets of objects, to at least 120, by partitioning collections into equal groups using number knowledge and skip counting

• counting a large collection of items using groups of fives or tens and skip counting to work out how many there are, and recording the amount and connecting the digits in the number to the grouped materials when using groups of 10
• counting collections of objects, such as pencils or images of birds in a tree, by grouping them in tens to enable efficient counting, and connecting the digits in the number to the groups of tens and ones
• counting a large collection of Australian $1 coins by stacking them in piles of 10, skip counting in tens and including any leftover coins to determine the total value
