  Understand how to move beyond making bare assertions and take account of differing perspectives and points of view

  Elaborations

  • recognising that a bare assertion (for example 'It's the best film this year') often needs to be tempered by: using the 'impersonal it' to distance oneself (for example 'It could be that it is the best film this year'); recruiting anonymous support (for example 'It is generally agreed that it is the best film this year.'); indicating a general source of the opinion (for example 'Most critics agree that it is the best film this year.'); specifying the source of the opinion (for example 'David and Margaret both agree that it is the best film this year') and reflecting on the effect of these different choices

  Recognise that signing happens in a finite space that can be used meaningfully within individual signs, learning in particular how depicting signs, some verbs, pronouns and enacting make use of spatial relationships

  Elaborations

  • realising that meaning is communicated through the use of signs, pictures, written or spoken words or miming
  • describing the range of signing space in normal signed discourse
  • noticing that single-digit numbers can be separate lexical items or merged into other signs (numeral incorporation) such as those for ages (for example, 5-YEARS-OLD) or adverbs of time (for example, 3-WEEKS-AGO) or pronouns (WE3, WE4)
  • noticing that Auslan pronouns are different from English ones because they don’t show gender but they can show location and a specific number of referents, for example, WE2 (inclusive) and WE3 (inclusive) or WE2-NOT-INCLUDING-YOU (exclusive)
  • noticing that enacting a role or modifying the beginning and end locations of some verbs can show the referents involved, for example:
    PRO1 ASK PRO3 versus PRO1 ASK-_her
    PRO3 ASK-_me CA:I-was-shocked
    
  • identifying what sort of things can be represented in a DS by a particular handshape, for example a distant person, pole or tree can be represented by a point handshape, and a cylinder can be traced by a C handshape

• VC2M5A02

  find unknown values in numerical equations involving multiplication and division using the properties of numbers and operations

  Elaborations

  • using knowledge of equivalent number sentences to form and find unknown values in numerical equations; for example, given that 3 × 5 = 15 and 30 ÷ 2 = 15, then 3 × 5 = 30 ÷ 2, and therefore the solution to 3 × 5 = 30 ÷ □ is 2
  • using relational thinking, and an understanding of equivalence and number properties to determine and reason about numerical equations; for example, explaining whether an equation involving equivalent multiplication number sentences is true, such as 15 ÷ 3 = 30 ÷ 6
  • using materials, diagrams and arrays to demonstrate that multiplication is associative and commutative but division is not – for example, using arrays to demonstrate that 2 × 3 = 3 × 2 but 6 ÷ 3 does not equal 3 ÷ 6; demonstrating that 2 × 2 × 3 = 12 and 2 × 3 × 2 = 12 and 3 × 2 × 2 = 12; and understanding that 8 ÷ 2 ÷ 2 = (8 ÷ 2) ÷ 2 = 2 but 8 ÷ (2 ÷ 2) = 8 ÷ 1 = 8
  • using materials, diagrams or arrays to recognise and explain the distributive property, for example, where 4 × 13 = 4 × 10 + 4 × 3
  • constructing equivalent number sentences involving multiplication to form a numerical equation, and applying knowledge of factors, multiples and the associative property to find unknown values in numerical equations; for example, considering 3 × 4 = 12 and knowing 2 × 2 = 4, then 3 × 4 can be written as 3 × (2 × 2) and, using the associative property, (3 × 2) × 2 so 3 × 4 = 6 × 2 and so 6 is the solution to 3 × 4 = □ × 2
