In a range of meaningful contexts, students will be engaged in thinking mathematically and statistically. They will solve problems and model situations that require them to:

Number and algebra

Number strategies

Use a range of additive and simple multiplicative strategies with whole numbers, fractions, decimals, and percentages.

Number knowledge

Know basic multiplication and division facts.

Know counting sequences for whole numbers.

Know how many tenths, tens, hundreds, and thousands are in whole numbers.

Know fractions and percentages in everyday use.

Equations and expressions

Record and interpret additive and simple multiplicative strategies, using, words, diagrams, and symbols, with an understanding of equality.

Patterns and relationships

Generalise the properties of addition and subtraction with whole numbers.

Connect members of sequential patterns with their ordinal position and use tables, graphs, and diagrams to find relationships between successive elements of number and spatial patterns.

Geometry and measurement

Measurement

Use linear scales and whole numbers of metric units for length, area, volume and capacity, weight (mass), angle, temperature, and time.

Find areas of rectangles and volumes of cuboids by applying multiplication.

Shape

Classify plane shapes and prisms by their spatial features.

Represent objects with drawings and models.

Position and orientation

Use a co-ordinate system or the language of direction and distance to specify locations and describe paths.

Transformation

Describe the transformations (reflection, rotation, translation, or enlargement) that have mapped one object onto another.

Statistics

Statistical investigation

Conduct investigations using the statistical enquiry cycle:

gathering, sorting, and displaying multivariate category and whole-number data and simple time-series data to answer questions

identifying patterns and trends in context, within and between data sets

communicating findings, using data displays.

Statistical literacy

Evaluate the effectiveness of different displays in representing the findings of a statistical investigation or probability activity undertaken by others.

Probability

Investigate simple situations that involve elements of chance by comparing experimental results with expectations from models of all the outcomes, acknowledging that samples vary.
