  Translate and compare simple texts such as public signs, menus and advertisements in Spanish and English, noticing that it is not always possible to translate word for word

  Elaborations

  • translating short texts such as public signs or community notices from Spanish to English and vice versa, identifying problems encountered and noticing similarities and differences in how the messages are formed, for example, the Spanish use of infinitive forms in signs compared to the English use of imperatives
  • using print and electronic dictionaries to assist in the translation of simple texts, noticing that single words can have different meanings, for example, ‘cricket’ (sport or insect) and the six possible translations of ‘you’ in Spanish (tú, usted, ustedes, vosotros, vosotras, vos)
  • collecting examples of ‘false friends’ encountered when translating between English and Spanish, for example, carpeta/‘folder’, contestar/‘answer’, pie/‘foot’
  • identifying cognates in Spanish texts that can be used to predict meaning (alto, stop, chocolate, patata), and considering reasons for the similarities
  • understanding the distinction between literal and non-literal translation, and identifying expressions in Spanish or English that make no sense when translated literally into the other language, for example, pasarlo bomba, tomar el pelo, meter la pata, costar un ojo de la cara, dar la lata, ‘she’ll be right’, ‘fair dinkum’, ‘a piece of cake’, ‘to cost an arm and a leg’
  • comparing and translating language used in Spanish and English text messages, for example, a2 (adiós), xq? (¿por qué?), kntm (cuéntame), tqi (tengo que irme), CU (‘See you’), LOL (‘Laughing out loud’), and considering the use and effects of abbreviations

• VC2M4N09

  use mathematical modelling to solve practical problems that involve additive and multiplicative situations, including financial contexts; formulate the problems using number sentences and choose efficient calculation strategies, using digital tools where appropriate; interpret and communicate...

  Elaborations

  • modelling and solving a range of practical additive problems using materials, part-part-whole diagrams and/or a bar model, and writing addition and/or subtraction number sentences, based on whether a part or the whole is missing; and explaining how each number in their number sentence is connected to the situation
  • modelling practical problems with division, interpreting and representing the situation using a diagram or array to represent what is unknown (the number of groups, or the number per group); and writing a division number sentence to represent the situation and choosing an efficient calculation strategy
  • modelling practical problems involving money (such as a budget for a large event) that require either addition, subtraction, multiplication or division and justifying the choice of operation in relation to the situation
  • modelling and solving multiplication problems involving money, such as buying 5 toy scooters for $96 each, using efficient mental strategies and written jottings to keep track if needed; for example, rounding $96 up to $100 and subtracting 5 × $4 = $20, so 5 × $96 is the same as 5 × $100 less $20, giving the answer $500 − $20 = $480
  • modelling situations by formulating comparison problems using number sentences, comparison models and arrays; for example, ‘Ariana read 16 books for the “readathon”; Maryam read 4 times as many books. How many books did Maryam read?’ using the expression 4 × 16 and using place value partitioning, basic facts and an array, thinking 4 × 10 = 40 and 4 × 6 = 24, so 4 × 16 can be written as 40 + 24 = 64

  approximate numerical solutions to problems involving rational numbers and percentages, using appropriate estimation strategies

  Elaborations

  • using familiar fractions, decimals and percentages to approximate calculations, such as 0.3 of 180 is about 13 of 180, or 52% is about 12
  • choosing appropriate estimation strategies including rounding to the nearest whole number, knowledge of multiples of 2, 5 or 10 and partitioning numbers, in contexts such as measuring or cost per unit
  • recognising the effect of rounding on calculations involving fractions or decimals and saying what numbers the answer will be between
  • recognising the usefulness of estimation to check calculations for contexts such as dividing wood into a number of lengths, calculating cost per unit, reducing a recipe or dividing the cost of dinner for a group into individual amounts
  • verifying solutions by estimating percentages in suitable contexts, such as discounts, using common percentages of 10%, 25%, 30%, 50% and 1%
  • investigating estimation strategies to make decisions about steam cooking in ground ovens by Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Peoples, including catering for different numbers of people and resources needed for cooking
