Stage 3, mathematics, Year A – Unit 01
This unit develops the big idea that our number system extends infinitely to very large and very small numbers.
Students are provided with opportunities to:
- name, rename, represent and order numbers up to millions
- compare, order and represent decimals
- explore the link between multiplicative thinking and place value.
Represents numbers A – MAO-WM-01, MA3-RN-01, MA3-RN-02
- Whole numbers: Recognise, represent and order numbers in the millions
- Whole numbers: Apply place value to partition, regroup and rename numbers to 1 billion
- Decimals and percentages: Recognise that the place value system can be extended beyond hundredths
- Decimals and percentages: Compare, order and represent decimals
Multiplicative relations A – MAO-WM-01, MA3-MR-01
- Determine products and factors
- Use partitioning and place value to multiply 2-, 3- and 4-digit numbers by one-digit numbers
