Multi-age 3–6, mathematics, Year B – Unit 10
This 2-week, Year B unit develops the big idea that angles are the primary structural component of many shapes.
Syllabus
Syllabus outcomes from Mathematics K–10 Syllabus (2022) © NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) for and on behalf of the Crown in right of the State of New South Wales, 2024.
Students are provided opportunities to:
- measure, compare and sequence events by halving and quartering blocks of time
- represent fractional quantities of time and the multiplicative relationships
- estimate and describe the size of angles using known angles as benchmarks such as right angles
- estimate, measure and compare angles using degrees
- solve problems involving duration, using 12- and 24-hour time.
