• Mathematics: Level 1 description

  In Level 1, students use mathematical symbols and language as well as materials and drawings in their mathematical explorations of daily life.

  Students recognise, represent and order numbers to at least 100 using materials, diagrams, words, numerals and a number line, and apply this with respect...

• Mathematics: Level 9 achievement standards

  Number and Algebra

  Students apply the index laws using integer indices to variables and numbers, express numbers in scientific notation, solve problems involving very small and very large numbers, and check the order of magnitude of calculations. They solve problems involving simple interest. Students...

• Mathematics: Level 3 description

  In Level 3, students increasingly use mathematical terms and symbols to describe computations, measurements and characteristics of objects.

  Students recognise, model and order numbers to at least 10 000 and place four digit numbers on a number line with regard for scale. They partition and re-arrange...

• VCMSP180

  Evaluate the effectiveness of different displays in illustrating data features including variability

  Elaborations

  • interpreting data representations in the media and other forums in which symbols represent more than one data value
  • suggesting questions that can be answered by a given data display and using the display to answer questions

  VCMSP180 | Mathematics | Level 4 | Statistics and Probability | Data representation and interpretation

• VCMSP235

  Construct, interpret and compare a range of data displays, including side-by-side column graphs for two categorical variables

  Elaborations

  • comparing different student-generated diagrams, tables and graphs, describing their similarities and differences and commenting on the usefulness of each representation for interpreting the data
  • understanding that data can be represented in different ways, sometimes with one symbol representing more than one piece of data, and that it is important to read all information about a representation before making judgments

• VCMMG045

  Identify familiar events that occur at different stages of a day (morning, afternoon, evening, night)

  Elaborations

  • sorting images or symbols according to whether they occur during the day or the night
  • using visual schedules to complete activities within an event and events within the day, and manage time throughout the day
  • interpreting language, images and communication associated with day such as morning, afternoon, and night
  • indicating an event as long or short
  • recognising and responding to daily routines by selecting an image from a schedule to indicate an activity has finished or is about to begin
