Stage 3, mathematics, Year B – Unit 30
This 2-week, Year B unit develops the big idea that angles are the primary structural component of many shapes.
Students are provided opportunities to:
- estimate and describe the size of angles using known angles as benchmarks
- estimate, measure and compare angles using degrees
- solve problems involving duration, using 12- and 24-hour time.
Representing quantity fractions B – MAO-WM-01, MA3-RQF-01, MA3-RQF-02
- Compare common fractions with related denominators
- Build up to the whole from a given fractional part
- Use equivalence to add and subtract fractional quantities
Geometric measure B – MAO-WM-01, MA3-GM-03
- Angles: Investigate angles on a straight line and angles at a point
- Angles: Investigate the relationships formed by the intersection of straight lines
Non-spatial measure B – MAO-WM-01, MA3-NSM-02
Time: Compare 12- and 24-hour time systems and convert between them
