1 Learning Area: Mathematics Year 209 Course and Assessment Outline Year Essentials Mathematics COURSE OUTLINE SEM/ TERM WEEKS LEARNING CONTENT- Unit ASSESSMENTS Topic. Basic calculations, percentages and rates -2 Basic Calculations.. use leading digit approximation to obtain estimates of calculations..2 check results of calculations for accuracy..3 understand the meaning and magnitude of numbers involved, including fractions, percentages and the significance of place value after the decimal point..4 ascertain the reasonableness of answers, in terms of context, to arithmetic calculations..5 round up or round down answers to the accuracy required, including to the required number of decimal places..6 choose and use addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, or combinations of these operations, to solve practical problems..7 apply arithmetic operations according to their correct order

2 ..8 convert between fractions, decimals and percentages, using a calculator when appropriate..9 evaluate fractions and decimals of quantities to the required number of decimal places; for example, 3 4 of 250 ml, 0.4 of 3kg..0 apply approximation strategies for calculations if appropriate.. use mental and/or flexible written strategies when appropriate..2 use a calculator appropriately and efficiently for multi-step calculations Quiz #-Week 3 Basic Calculations 3-4 Percentages..3 calculate a percentage of a given amount, using mental/written strategies or technology when appropriate..4 determine one amount expressed as a percentage of another..5 apply percentage increases and decreases in situations, for example, mark-ups and discounts and GST 4-5 Rates ( no inverse proprtion)..6 identify common usage of rates, such as: km/h as a rate to describe speed or beats/minute as a rate describing pulse rate..7 convert units of rates occurring in practical situations to solve problems. For example, tablespoon (tbsp) = 4 teaspoons (tsp) or tbsp = 20 ml (Australia) or 5 ml (US and UK)..8 use rates to make comparisons 6 Revision for Practical Application Percentages Practical Application Week 6

3 Topic.2: Using formulas for practical purposes identify common use of formulas to describe practical relationships between quantities.2.2 substitute values for the variables in a mathematical formula in given form to calculate the value of the subject of the formula 7 Revision for Test -Basci Calculations, Percentages, Rates and Formulas Test -Week 7 Topic.3: Measurement 8-9 Linear and Area measure.3. choose and use appropriate metric units of area, their abbreviations and conversions between them.3.2 estimate the areas of different shapes.3.3 convert between metric units of area and other area units.3.4 calculate areas of rectangles and triangles, and composites of these shapes 9 Mass.3.5 choose and use appropriate metric units of mass, their abbreviations and conversions between them.3.6 estimate the mass of different objects

4 0 (2 hours) Units of energy.3.7 use units of energy to describe consumption of electricity, such as kilowatt hours use units of energy used for foods, including kilojoules and calories.3.9 use units of energy to describe the amount of energy expended during activity convert from one unit of energy to another, such as calories/kilojoules -2 Volume and Capacity.3.0 choose and use appropriate metric units of volume, their abbreviations, and conversions between them.3. understand the relationship between volume and capacity, recognising that cm 3 = ml and m 3 = kl.3.2 estimate volume and capacity of various objects.3.3 calculate the volume and capacity of cubes and rectangular and triangular prisms Quiz #2-Week0 Linear & Area Measure Mass Reading and interpreting graphs.4. interpret information presented in graphs, such as: conversion graphs, line graphs, step graphs, column graphs and picture graphs.4.2 interpret information presented in two-way tables.4.3 discuss and interpret graphs found in the media and in factual texts Test 2-Week 3 Linear &Area measure Mass Volume and capacity formulas Drawing graphs.4.4 determine which type of graph is the best one to display a dataset.4.5 use spreadsheets to tabulate and graph data.4.6 draw a line graph to represent any data that demonstrates a continuous change, such as hourly temperature Quiz #3-Week 4 Reading, interpreting and drawing graphs

5 2 5-6 Examinations Sem/ WEEKS LEARNING CONTENT- Unit 2 ASSESSMENTS Topic 2.: Representing and comparing data 2 7 Classifying data 2.. identify examples of categorical data 2..2 identify examples of numerical data Data presentation and interpretation 2..3 display categorical data in tables and column graphs 2..4 display numerical data as frequency distributions, dot plots, stem and leaf plots and histograms 2..5 recognise and identify outliers 2..6 compare the suitability of different methods of data presentation in real-world contexts

6 2 8-9 (6 hours) Summarising and interpreting data 2..7 identify the mode and calculate other measures of central tendency, the arithmetic mean and the median, using technology when appropriate 2..8 investigate the suitability of measures of central tendency in various real-world contexts 2..9 investigate the effect of outliers on the mean and the median 2..0 calculate and interpret quartiles 2.. use informal ways of describing spread, such as: spread out/dispersed, tightly packed, clusters, gaps, more/less dense regions, outliers 2..2 interpret statistical measures of spread, such as: the range, interquartile range 2..3 investigate real-world examples from the media illustrating inappropriate uses, of measures of central tendency and spread (6 hours) Comparing data sets 2..4 compare back to back stem plots for different data sets 2..5 complete a five number summary for different data sets 2..6 construct and interpret box plots using a five number summary 2..7 compare the characteristics of the shape of histograms using symmetry, skewness and bimodality Test 3 Week 0 Representing and comparing data 3 Statistical Investigation -Collection of data -Organising data -Summarising and Interpreting data -Comparing data sets Statistical Investigation TH-week 8 Statistical Investigation In-class Week 2

7 Topic 2.2 Percentages Percentage calculations 2.2. review calculating a percentage of a given amount review one amount expressed as a percentage of another Applications of percentages determine the overall change in a quantity following repeated percentage changes; for example, an increase of 0% followed by a decrease of 0% calculate simple interest Quiz #4-Week4 Percentage Calculations Topic 2.3: rates and ratios Ratios and Rates 2.3. identify common use of ratios to express comparisons of quantities in practical situations use diagrams or concrete materials to show simple ratios, such as to 4, :: understand the relationship between simple fractions, percentages and ratio, for example, a ratio of :4 is the same as 20% to 80% or /5 to 4/ express a ratio in simplest form determine the ratio of two quantities in context divide a quantity in a given ratio, for example, share $2 in the ratio to use ratio to describe simple scales review identifying common usage of rates, such as km/h convert units for rate; for example, km/h to m/s, ml/min to L/h complete calculations with rates, including solving problems involving direct proportion in terms of rate 2.3. use rates to make comparisons
