Stage 3, mathematics, Year B – Unit 28
This 2-week, Year B unit develops the big idea that visual representations help us understand aspects of our world (chance and position).
Students are provided opportunities to:
- plot and translate shapes on a Cartesian plane
- explore and experiment with frequency and sample size containing equal and unequal chance
- present probability outcomes and create random generators.
Representing quantity fractions B – MAO-WM-01, MA3-RQF-01
Compare common fractions with related denominators
Geometric measure A – MAO-WM-01, MA3-GM-01
Position: Explore the Cartesian coordinate system
Geometric measure B – MAO-WM-01, MA3-GM-01
Position: Use the 4 quadrants of the coordinate plane
Two-dimensional spatial structure B – MAO-WM-01, MA3-2DS-01
2D shapes: Dissect two-dimensional shapes and rearrange them using translations, reflections and rotations
Chance A – MAO-WM-01, MA3-CHAN-01
List outcomes of chance experiments involving equally likely outcomes and represent probabilities
Chance B – MAO-WM-01, MA3-CHAN-01
Conduct chance experiments with both small and large numbers of trials
