0 of 22 concepts ready to learn · Markdown, for your AI
1. Data and Statistics · Represent and analyze data.
- Line graphs (age 10+): Interpret and construct pie charts and line graphs; use these to solve problems
2. Geometry and Measurement · Solve problems involving measurement and conversions within a measurement system.
- Measurement Conversions: Solve problems involving the calculation and conversion of units of measure, using decimal notation and multi-step reasoning in real-world contexts
3. Geometry and Measurement · Graph points on the Cartesian coordinate plane within the first quadrant to solve problems.
- 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
4. Geometry and Measurement · Understand and compute volume.
- Volume as additive: Recognise volume as additive; find volumes of composite solid figures made of two or more non-overlapping right rectangular prisms
- Measuring length (age 10+): Recognise volume as an attribute of solid figures; understand that a unit cube (side length 1 unit) has 'one cubic unit' of volume and can be used to measure volume; a solid packed with n unit cubes has volume n cubic units
- Counting Unit Cubes: Measure volumes by counting unit cubes using cubic cm, cubic in, cubic ft, and other units
5. Geometry and Measurement · Classify two- and three- dimensional geometric shapes.
- 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
6. Relationships and Algebraic Thinking · Use the four operations to represent and solve problems.
- 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
- Advanced Multi-Step Problems: Make sense of complex multi-step problems involving ratio, proportion, algebra, negative numbers, and all four operations with fractions and decimals by analysing given and unknown quantities, planning solution strategies, and evaluating reasonableness using estimation and inverse operations
7. Relationships and Algebraic Thinking · Represent and analyze patterns and relationships.
- 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
8. Number Sense and Operations in Fractions · Perform operations and solve problems with fractions and decimals.
- 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
- Percentages as Fractions: Define percentage as 'number of parts per hundred'; interpret percentages and percentage changes as a fraction or a decimal; express one quantity as a percentage of another; compare quantities using percentages; work with percentages greater than 100%
- Multiplying fractions (age 11+): Interpret fractions and percentages as operators — find a fraction or percentage of an amount by multiplying, understanding that 'of' means multiply (e.g., 3/4 of 200 = 3/4 × 200 = 150)
- 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
- Fractions, Decimals & Percentages: Look for and use mathematical structure: exploit the relationship between fractions, decimals, and percentages; use factor pairs to simplify multiplication; apply angle facts to find unknowns; use properties of regular polygons systematically
- Fractions on a number line: Understand and use place value for decimals, measures, and integers of any size; extend the number system to include all positive and negative integers, decimals, and fractions on a single number line
- 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
- Adding fractions (different denominators): Add and subtract fractions with denominators that are multiples of the same number by finding a common denominator
- 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
9. Number Sense and Operations in Fractions · Understand the relationship between fractions and decimals (denominators that are factors of 100).
- Comparing Decimals: Compare two decimals to hundredths (or up to three decimal places) by reasoning about size using place-value understanding; record with >, =, <
- Decimal & Percent Notation: Read, write, and use decimal and percentage notation correctly — decimal, decimal point, tenths, hundredths, thousandths, percentage, per cent, % symbol, convert, terminating decimal — and understand the relationships between fractions, decimals, and percentages as three ways of expressing the same value
- 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)
