Thinking mathematically learning sequences – Stage 2
Stage 2 – learning sequences – two week units of work that build student skills.
Thinking mathematically 1
This sequence of learning provides opportunities to deepen critical aspects of number sense in the context of games and investigations. Students will explore key aspects of Number and Algebra including working with numbers in additive and multiplicative situations. The sequence provides opportunities to connect learning between these aspects of Number and Algebra with learning in Measurement and Geometry and Statistics and Probability.
Thinking mathematically 2
This sequence of learning provides opportunities to deepen critical aspects of number sense through tight, targeted teaching and opportunities to apply skills (contexts for enriching learning such as games and investigations). Students will explore the flexibility of numbers and operations as they explore different ways of solving additive and multiplicative problems. They will also delve into aspects of measurement and geometry.
Thinking mathematically 3
This sequence of lessons provides opportunities to deepen critical aspects of number knowledge through tight, targeted teaching and opportunities to apply skills (contexts for enriching learning such as games and investigations). Students will explore the flexibility of numbers and operations whilst also exploring patterns and aspects of measurement and geometry. These tasks are designed to support learning in these areas through working mathematically.
