• Mathematics | Mathematics: Rationale and Aims

  Rationale

  Mathematics provides students with access to important mathematical ideas, knowledge and skills that they will draw on in their personal and work lives. The curriculum also provides students, as life-long learners, with the basis on which further study and research in mathematics and...

• VCMNA154

  Investigate number sequences involving multiples of 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9

  Elaborations

  • recognising that number sequences can be extended indefinitely, and determining any patterns in the sequences

• Mathematics | Mathematics: Structure

  The curriculum is organised by the three strands of Number and Algebra, Measurement and Geometry, and Statistics and Probability.

  Each strand is organised by sub-­strands. Sub-strands group content descriptions under an appropriate concept, to provide both a focus and a clear sequence for the...

• VCMNA133

  Recall addition facts for single-digit numbers and related subtraction facts to develop increasingly efficient mental strategies for computation

  Elaborations

  • recognising that certain single-digit number combinations always result in the same answer for addition and subtraction, and using this knowledge for addition and subtraction of larger numbers
  • extending strategies for addition and subtraction such as 14 + 8 + 6 = 14 + 6 + 8 = 28 and 54 – 28 = 2 + 20 + 4
  • combining knowledge of addition and subtraction facts and partitioning to aid computation. For example, 57 + 19 = 57 + 20 – 1

• VCMSP323

  Investigate reports of surveys in digital media and elsewhere for information on how data were obtained to estimate population means and medians

  Elaborations

  • investigating a range of data and its sources. For example, the age of residents in Australia, Cambodia and Tonga, or the number of subjects studied at school by 14-year-old students in Australia, Japan and Timor-Leste

• VCMNA129

  Investigate the conditions required for a number to be odd or even and identify odd and even numbers

  Elaborations

  • identifying even numbers using skip counting by twos or by grouping even collections of objects in twos
  • explaining why all numbers that end in the digits 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 are even and that numbers ending in 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 are odd

• VCMNA257

  Investigate, interpret and analyse graphs from real life data, including consideration of domain and range

  Elaborations

  • using travel graphs to investigate and compare the distance travelled to and from school
  • interpreting features of travel graphs such as the slope of lines and the meaning of horizontal lines
  • using graphs of evaporation rates to explore water storage
  • describing and comparing temperature during a day at different times of the year from the corresponding graphs

• Mathematics: Level 4 description

  In Level 4, students extend the number system to simple decimal fractions, and broaden their use of measures and scales.

  Students model, represent and order numbers to tens of thousands, and extend place value to tenths and hundredths. They investigate odd and even numbers and explore number patterns...

• Mathematics: Level 8 description

  In Level 8, students consolidate their proficiency with the four arithmetic operations, and combinations of these, for general computation involving natural numbers, integers and rational numbers, with and without the use of technology. They represent these numbers on the real number line. They...
