Teachers’ Notes Maths: Year 6 is part of The OzzieMaths Series which comprises seven books altogether. It is linked to the Australian Curriculum and each page in the book references the content descriptor/s and elaboration/s being addressed. The activities have been designed to develop mathematical skills and reasoning in a creative way that is connected to solving problems in real-life contexts. Students will be asked to reflect upon the strategies used to problem-solve effectively in familiar situations and expand their ideas to realise that mathematical understanding has an important role in other subject areas. Answers and additional teaching information are included at the back of the book. This book is divided into three sections as detailed below.

or eBo st r e p ok u S

Teac he r

Section One: Number and Algebra

In this section, students will engage in a variety of activities that require them to demonstrate ever-increasing capability in using mental and written strategies to explore number relationships and patterns. Tasks include: identifying and explaining the odd one out in a number series, exploring integers above and below sea level, playing equivalent fraction dominoes and writing number sentences with the powers of 10 to burst balloons.

m . u

w ww

calculating and comparing measurements of mass, length and capacity in our daily lives. Students will engage in activities such as: converting metric units of everyday objects, finding the correct dose of water conditioner for fish tanks and planning a ferry trip to the zoo by reading a timetable. Tasks investigating the Cartesian Plane include a pizza delivery race and designing a logo for the community.

. te Statistics and Probability o Section Three: c . che Students will develop skills in interpreting and comparing edata r o displays based on an extreme bike race and changes t in height for r s s uper women and men over the last century. They will consider how data can be skewed in displays to give a biased viewpoint and identify what to be on the lookout for. Tasks to describe probability focus on real-life examples and carrying out chance experiments with a small and large sample.

p.53 The discussion cards are designed for students to reflect on the probability of events occurring if the conditions are fair. There are opportunities to determine whether or not events are related or unrelated, to describe probability as a fraction, decimal or percentage and to discuss folkloric notions of likely outcomes e.g. it always rains after the car’s been washed or there’s always someone in my year with the same birthday (interestingly, the probability of a match in a class of 25 is 56.09%; in a year group of 72, it’s 99.01%).
