K–10Mathematics K–10 Syllabus
Mathematics for K−2
The new syllabus must now be taught in Kindergarten to Year 2 in all NSW primary schools.
Mathematics for 3−10
The new syllabus is to be taught in Years 3 to 10 from 2024.
2024 – Start teaching the new syllabus
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 5
- 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
- MA5-PRO-P-01
solves problems involving Venn diagrams, 2-way tables and conditional probability (Path: Adv)
Stn (Standard), Adv (Advanced) and Ext (Extension) have been used to suggest paths for related Stage 6 courses.
Represent and interpret Loading in Loading for Loading and non-mutually exclusive Loading
Construct Venn diagrams to represent all possible Loading of 2 Loading from given or collected data
Interpret data in Loading to represent relationships between attributes
Construct 2-way tables to represent the relationships between attributes
Convert between representations of the relationships between 2 attributes in Venn diagrams and 2-way tables
Define a Loading as a collection of distinct Loading
Use Venn diagrams, set language and notation for events, including (or or ) for the complement of an event , for ' and ' (the intersection of events and ) and for ' or ' (the union of events and ) and recognise mutually exclusive events
Calculate the Loading of events where a condition restricts the Loading
Describe the effect of a given condition on the sample space
Identify Loading statements used in descriptions of Loading situations
Explain the validity of conditional statements when describing chance situations, referring to Loading and Loading
Identify and explain common misconceptions relating to chance experiments
Explain the difference between mutually exclusive and non-mutually exclusive events
Describe compound events using the terms inclusive or and exclusive or
Describe non-mutually exclusive events using the terminology and, inclusive or and exclusive or
Describe events using the terms at least, at most, not and and
Calculate the probability of compound events using strategies including Venn diagrams and 2-way tables
