Abstract	Numeracy is a fundamental component of the Australian National Curriculum as a General Capability identified in each F-10 subject. In this paper we report on an aspect of a larger project aimed at investigating how effective cross-curricular numeracy practice can be implemented within the context of the Australian National Curriculum. Specifically, we draw on a numeracy audit of the English curriculum and on data collected via a semi-structured teacher interview to explore the numeracy demands and opportunities that exist in the teaching of English. Despite limited guidance for teachers in how to take advantage of numeracy skills within English, our investigation reveals that multiple opportunities to do so abound. (As Provided).
