Maths Grade 6

Weekly 1 hour session.

Grade 6 Mathematics in Australia follows the Australian Curriculum, which is designed to develop students' mathematical understanding, fluency, reasoning, and problem-solving skills. The key subject areas for Grade 6 Mathematics are:

1. Number and Algebra

   • Number and Place Value: Understanding and working with large numbers up to millions, including place value, rounding, and estimating. Performing efficient written and mental calculations with all four operations.
   • Fractions and Decimals: Comparing, ordering, and performing operations with fractions and decimals. Understanding and converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages.
   • Money and Financial Mathematics: Solving problems involving financial literacy, such as calculating discounts, profit, and loss.
   • Patterns and Algebra: Identifying, continuing, and creating number patterns and sequences. Using variables and algebraic expressions, and solving simple equations.

2. Measurement and Geometry

   • Using Units of Measurement: Understanding and converting between different units of measurement for length, area, volume, capacity, and mass. Calculating the area and perimeter of composite shapes and the volume of rectangular prisms.
   • Shape: Identifying and describing properties of 2D shapes and 3D objects, including angles, symmetry, and properties of prisms and pyramids.
   • Location and Transformation: Using coordinates in all four quadrants to describe locations on a grid. Understanding transformations, such as translations, rotations, reflections, and enlargements.
   • Geometric Reasoning: Understanding and applying angle properties, including complementary, supplementary, and vertically opposite angles. Solving problems involving unknown angles.

3. Statistics and Probability

   • Chance: Understanding and describing probabilities using fractions, decimals, and percentages. Conducting experiments and using probability to predict outcomes of events.
   • Data Representation and Interpretation: Collecting, organizing, and displaying data using various methods, such as tables, column graphs, dot plots, and histograms. Interpreting data to draw conclusions and make predictions.

These subject areas ensure that students develop a comprehensive understanding of mathematical concepts, preparing them for more advanced studies in mathematics in subsequent years.
