K–10Mathematics K–10 Syllabus (2022)
The new Mathematics K–10 Syllabus (2022) is to be implemented from 2024 and replaces the Mathematics K–10 Syllabus (2012).
School sectors are responsible for implementing syllabuses and are best placed to provide schools with specific guidance and information on implementation given their understanding of their individual contexts.
Content
Stage 3
- MAO-WM-01
develops understanding and fluency in mathematics through exploring and connecting mathematical concepts, choosing and applying mathematical techniques to solve problems, and communicating their thinking and reasoning coherently and clearly
- MA3-3DS-01
visualises, sketches and constructs three-dimensional objects, including prisms and pyramids, making connections to two-dimensional representations
- MA3-3DS-02
selects and uses the appropriate unit to estimate, measure and calculate volumes and capacities
Compare properties of prisms and pyramids
Name prisms and pyramids according to the Loading of their Loading
Visualise and sketch three-dimensional Loading from different views, including top, front and side views (Reasons about spatial orientation)
Examine a diagram to determine whether it is or is not the Loading of a closed 3-dimensional object
Visualise and sketch nets for given three-dimensional objects
Visualise and name prisms and pyramids, given representations of their nets (Reasons about spatial visualisation)
Select and use appropriate units to measure the Loading of a variety of Loading
Recognise that an object’s Loading takes up space by observing the change in water level when an object is placed in a container of water
Compare the volumes of 2 or more objects by marking the change in water level when each is submerged in a container
Recognise the Loading of whole-number and decimal representations of measurements of capacities
Interpret Loading notation for capacities
Record measurements to 3 decimal places
