1. Data Analysis and Probability

Statistical Analysis Vocabulary: Read, write, and use the vocabulary of statistical analysis — mean, median, mode, range, frequency, data, sample, average, chart, table, graph, pie chart, scatter graph, correlation — with understanding of what each term describes
Understanding fractions: Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8); use operations on fractions to solve problems involving data in line plots (e.g. redistribute total equally)

2. Geometric Reasoning

Plotting points in the first quadrant: Plot and read ordered pairs in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane; represent real-world and mathematical problems by graphing points and interpreting coordinate values in context
Real-World Mathematical Modelling: Model real-world problems involving ratio, scale, volume, unit conversion, and proportional reasoning with appropriate tools, diagrams, or equations
Volume as additive: Recognise volume as additive; find volumes of composite solid figures made of two or more non-overlapping right rectangular prisms
Counting Unit Cubes: Measure volumes by counting unit cubes using cubic cm, cubic in, cubic ft, and other units
Area with Fractions: Find the area of a rectangle with fractional side lengths by tiling with unit-fraction squares; show that the area equals the product of the side lengths
Classifying shapes by line properties: Classify two-dimensional figures based on the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines, or angles of a specified size; recognise right triangles as a category
Classifying shapes by properties: Compare and classify geometric shapes based on their properties and sizes; understand that attributes belonging to a category also belong to all subcategories; classify two-dimensional figures in a hierarchy based on properties

3. Fractions

Dividing fractions (unit fractions): Interpret and compute division of a unit fraction by a non-zero whole number (e.g. 1/3 ÷ 4 = 1/12); use visual models and the relationship between multiplication and division to explain the result
Multiplication as scaling: Interpret multiplication as scaling (resizing): compare the size of a product to a factor based on the size of the other factor without computing; explain the effect of multiplying by fractions greater than, equal to, or less than 1
Fraction Addition Concepts: Understand addition and subtraction of fractions as joining and separating parts; decompose a fraction into a sum of fractions with the same denominator in more than one way
Adding fractions (different denominators): Add and subtract fractions with denominators that are multiples of the same number by finding a common denominator
Multiplying fractions: Understand a/b as a multiple of 1/b; multiply proper fractions and mixed numbers by whole numbers, supported by visual models (e.g. 3 × 2/5 = 6/5 = 1 1/5)
Adding Fractions (Unlike Denominators): Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators (including mixed numbers) by replacing given fractions with equivalent fractions to produce a common denominator
Fractions of a whole: Understand a fraction 1/b as the quantity formed by 1 part when a whole is partitioned into b equal parts; understand a/b as a parts of size 1/b

4. Measurement

Measurement Conversions: Solve problems involving the calculation and conversion of units of measure, using decimal notation and multi-step reasoning in real-world contexts

5. Algebraic Reasoning

Shape patterns: Generate a number or shape pattern that follows a given rule; identify apparent features of the pattern not explicit in the rule and explain informally why they occur
Number Pattern Relationships: Generate two numerical patterns using two given rules; identify relationships between corresponding terms; form ordered pairs and graph them on a coordinate plane
Equations with Two Unknowns: Find pairs of numbers that satisfy an equation with two unknowns (e.g. find pairs (a, b) where a + b = 10 or 2a + b = 15)
Multi-step problems: choosing operations: Solve problems involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, deciding which operations and methods to use and why; solve multi-step problems in contexts
Algebraic Transformations: Model situations or procedures by translating them into algebraic expressions or formulae and by using graphs; move between word problems, algebraic representations, tables, and graphical representations
Dividing unit fractions and whole numbers: Solve real-world problems involving division of unit fractions by whole numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions, using visual models and equations
Real-world fraction multiplication: Solve real-world problems involving multiplication of fractions and mixed numbers, using visual fraction models or equations

6. Number Sense and Operations

Multiplying and dividing: Multiply and divide whole numbers and those involving decimals by 10, 100, and 1000
Decimals for Tenths & Hundredths: Use decimal notation for fractions with denominators 10 or 100; read and write decimal numbers as fractions (e.g. 0.62 = 62/100, 0.71 = 71/100)
Division with Decimals: Use written division methods in cases where the answer has up to two decimal places; divide decimals to hundredths by whole numbers
Fluent adding and subtracting within 1000: Fluently add and subtract within 1000 using strategies and algorithms based on place value, properties of operations, and the relationship between addition and subtraction
Dividing by two-digit numbers: Divide numbers up to 4 digits by a two-digit number using formal written short division where appropriate, interpreting remainders according to context
Fluent addition and subtraction (age 9+): Fluently add and subtract whole numbers with more than four digits using the standard columnar algorithm
Rounding Answers: Solve problems which require answers to be rounded to specified degrees of accuracy
Comparing Large Numbers: Order and compare numbers beyond 1000
Mixed & Improper Fractions: Use the four operations with formal written methods applied to integers, decimals, proper and improper fractions, and mixed numbers, all both positive and negative
Reading and writing numbers (age 10+): Read, write, and compare decimals to thousandths using base-ten numerals, number names, and expanded form; compare using >, =, < based on place-value meaning
Place Value × 10 and ÷ 10: Recognise that in a multi-digit number, a digit in one place represents 10 times as much as in the place to its right and 1/10 of what it represents in the place to its left
