    Sam runs fast but Chris runs the fastest.
    THAT BEST COMPUTER
    That’s the best computer.
    
  • sharing information about personal experiences or recent events, using time markers that incorporate numerals, such as THREE-DAYS-AGO, NEXT-WEEK, LAST YEAR, IN-TWO-DAYS
  • referring to family members’ and classmates’ names using fingerspelling or sign names as appropriate
  • describing class activities using plain or indicating verbs, modifying the indicating verbs some of the time, for example:
    THERE SIT BOOK READ, FINISH PUT++
    Over there we sit and read books, and when we’re finished we put them away.
    PENCIL PRO1 GIVE++
    I’ll give out the pencils.
    
  • conversing with friends using appropriate turn-taking strategies
  • asking and answering questions related to time, place, number, days of the week, months and seasons, for example:
    WHY SHOULD LOOK-_left LOOK-_right BEFORE ROAD CROSS
    Why do we need to look left and right before crossing the road?
    ONE WEEK DS:length HOW-MANY DAY?
    How many days in a week?
    
  • describing relationships between members of their family or between classmates, for example:
    PRO3 POSS1 COUSIN WE2 GOOD FRIEND.
    She’s my cousin; we’re good friends.
    POSS3 FATHER PUNISH PRO3
    Her father punished her.

  experiment with the effects of the variation of parameters on graphs of related functions, using digital tools, making connections between graphical and algebraic representations, and generalising emerging patterns 

  Elaborations

  • investigating transformations of the graph of y=x to the graph of y=ax+b by systematic variation of a and b and interpreting the effects of these transformations using digital tools; for example,
    y=x→y=2x (vertical enlargement as a>1) →y=2x-1 (vertical translation) and
     y=x→y=12x (vertical compression as 0<a<1) →y=-12x (reflection in the horizontal axis) →y=-12x+3 (vertical translation)
  • investigating transformations of the parabola y=x2 to the graph of y=ax-h2+b in the Cartesian plane using digital tools to determine the relationship between graphical and algebraic representations of quadratic functions, including the completed square form; for example,
    y=x2→y=13x2 (vertical compression as 0<a<1) →y=13(x-5)2 (horizontal translation) →y=13(x-5)2+7 (vertical translation) or
    y=x2→y=2x2 (vertical enlargement as a>1) →y=-2x2 (reflection in the horizontal axis) →y=-2(x+6)2 (horizontal translation) →y=-2x+62+10 (vertical translation)
  • experimenting with digital tools by applying transformations to the graphs of functions, such as reciprocal y=1x, square root y=x, cubic y=x3 and exponential functions y=2x, y=(12)x, identifying patterns

  apply the exponent laws to numerical expressions with integer exponents and the zero exponent, and extend to variables

  Elaborations

  • representing decimals in exponential form; for example, 0.475 can be represented as 0.475=410+7100+51000=4×10-1+7×10-2+5×10-3 and 0.00023 as 23 × 10^-5
  • simplifying and evaluating numerical expressions, involving both positive and negative integer exponents, explaining why; for example, 5-3=153=(15)3=1125 and connecting terms of the sequence 125, 25, 5, 1, 15, 125, 1125… to terms of the sequence 53, 52,51, 50, 5-1, 5-2, 5-3...
  • relating the computation of numerical expressions involving exponents to the exponent laws and the definition of an exponent; for example, 23÷25=2-2=122=14 and (3×5)2=32×52=9×25=225
  • recognising exponents in algebraic expressions and applying the relevant exponent laws and conventions; for example, for any non-zero natural number a, a0=1, x1=x,  r2=r×r,  h3=h×h×h,  y4=y×y×y×y, and 1w×1w=1w2=w-2
  • relating simplification of expressions from first principles and counting to the use of exponent laws; for example,
    (a2)3=a×a×a×a×a×a=a×a×a×a×a×a=a6;
    b2×b3=b×b×b×b×b=b×b×b×b×b=b5; y4y2=y×y×y×yy×y=y21=y2 and (5a)2=5×a×5×a=5 ×5×a×a=25×a2=25a2 
  • applying the exponent laws to simplifying expressions involving products, quotients, and powers of constants and variables; for example, (2xy)3xy4=8x3y3xy4=8x2y-1
  • relating the prefixes for SI units from pico- (trillionth) to tera- (trillion) to the corresponding powers of 10; for example, one pico-gram = 10^-12 grams and one terabyte = 10¹² bytes
