• VC2M3N04

  add and subtract two- and three-digit numbers using place value to partition, rearrange and regroup numbers to assist in calculations without a calculator

  Elaborations

  • using partitioning and part-part-whole models and the inverse relationship between addition and subtraction to solve addition or subtraction problems, making informal written ‘jottings’ to keep track of the numbers if necessary
  • using physical or virtual grouped materials or diagrams to make proportional models of numbers to assist in calculations, for example, to calculate 214 + 325, representing 214 as 2 groups of 100, one group of 10 and 4 ones and 325 as 3 groups of 100, 2 groups of 10 and 5 ones, resulting in 5 groups of 100, 3 groups of 10 and 9 ones, which is 539
  • choosing between standard and non-standard place value partitions to assist with calculations, for example, to solve 485 + 365, thinking of 365 as 350 + 15, then adding the parts, 485 + 15 = 500, 500 + 350 = 850
  • solving subtraction problems efficiently by adding or subtracting a constant amount to both numbers to create an easier calculation; for example, 534 − 395, adding 5 to both numbers to make 539 − 400 = 139
  • justifying choices about partitioning and regrouping numbers in terms of their usefulness for particular calculations when solving problems
  • applying knowledge of place value to assist in calculations when solving problems involving larger numbers; for example, calculating the total crowd numbers for an agricultural show that lasts a week

• VC2M5N06

  solve problems involving multiplication of larger numbers by one- or two-digit numbers, choosing efficient mental and written calculation strategies and using digital tools where appropriate; check the reasonableness of answers

  Elaborations

  • solving multiplication problems such as 253 × 4 using a doubling strategy, for example, 2 × 253 = 506 and 2 × 506 = 1012
  • solving multiplication problems like 15 × 16 by thinking of factors of both numbers, 15 = 3 × 5, 16 = 2 × 8, and rearranging the factors to make the calculation easier, 5 × 2 = 10, 3 × 8 = 24 and 10 × 24 = 240
  • using an array to show place value partitioning to solve multiplication, such as 324 × 8, thinking 300 × 8 = 2400, 20 × 8 = 160, 4 × 8 = 32 then adding the parts, 2400 + 160 + 32 = 2592; and connecting the parts of the array to a standard written algorithm
  • using different strategies used to multiply numbers, and explaining how they work and if they have any limitations; for example, discussing how the Japanese visual method for multiplication is not effective for multiplying larger numbers

• VC2M5N02

  express natural numbers as products of their factors, recognise multiples and determine if one number is divisible by another

  Elaborations

  • using a certain number of blocks to form different rectangles and using these to list all possible factors for that number; for example, 12 blocks can form the following rectangles: 1 × 12, 2 × 6 and 3 × 4
  • researching divisibility tests and explaining each rule using materials; for example, using base-10 blocks to test if numbers are divisible by 2, 5 and 10
  • using divisibility tests to determine if larger numbers are multiples of one-digit numbers; for example, testing if 89 472 is divisible by 3 using 8 + 9 + 4 + 7 + 2 = 30, as 30 is divisible by 3 then 89 472 is a multiple of 3
  • demonstrating and reasoning that all multiples can be formed by combining or regrouping; for example, multiples of 7 can be formed by combining a multiple of 2 with the corresponding multiple of 5: 3 × 7 = 3 × 2 + 3 × 5, and 4 × 7 = 4 × 2 + 4 × 5

  • using number tracks or positioning a set of numbered cards in the correct order and relative location by pegging them on an empty number line
  • using hundreds charts to build understanding and fluency with numbers; for example, collaboratively building a hundreds chart using cards numbered from zero to 99, or colour-coding the count of tens in a hundreds chart using one colour to represent the number of tens and another to represent the number of ones
  • recognising that numbers are used in all languages and cultures but may be represented differently in words and symbols (for example, through kanji numbers in Japanese and characters in Chinese) and that there are alternative numeration systems (for example, using special characters for 10 and 100 and other multiples of 10 in Japanese and Chinese numeration)
