Application

This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to use familiar two dimensional (2D) shapes in simple workplace tasks and texts. It includes locating and recognising 2D shape information, performing simple mathematical processes with 2D shapes and communicating simple 2D shape information.

An individual performing these tasks works alongside an expert or mentor where prompting and advice can be provided as needed.

This unit applies to individuals who use, or are preparing to use, numeracy skills to complete workplace activities. This includes existing workers and individuals preparing for employment through vocational education and training. This unit can be integrated and contextualised with vocational training to support achievement of vocational competency.

This unit is aligned to, but does not fully address, the Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) numeracy core skill indicators .09, .10 and .11 at level 1 in the workplace and employment domain of communication.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Elements and Performance Criteria

Element	Performance Criteria
Elements describe the essential outcomes.	Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.
1. Identify familiar 2D shapes	1.1 Locate and recognise familiar 2D shapes and objects in highly familiar short and simple written workplace texts 1.2 Describe orally familiar 2D shapes and objects in highly familiar short and simple oral workplace texts and tasks
2. Use simple shape-based mathematical processes	2.1 Compare familiar 2D workplace shapes and objects in relation to size and shape to perform concrete workplace task involving one step 2.2 Group familiar 2D workplace shapes and objects to perform concrete workplace task involving one step 2.3 Perform rough check of the reasonableness of the mathematical result with support
3. Communicate simple shape information	3.1 Use highly familiar and simple written representation to write simple shape information in highly familiar workplace texts and tasks 3.2 Use everyday informal oral language to discuss simple shape information in highly familiar workplace tasks and conversations
