Units of Work

Street Maps

In this unit students use street maps as the context to learn about grid references, and for giving and following instructions involving directions and distances. In this unit students use street maps as the context to learn about grid references, and for giving and following instructions involving directions and distances.

Level Three > Geometry and Measurement
Achievement Objectives:

Achievement Objective: Use a co-ordinate system or the language of direction and distance to specify locations and describe paths.

Which Graph? with Excel

This unit involves the same mathematics as Which Graph Level 3 but involves students making the bar graphs and pie graphs using Excel. The instructions to use Excel are provided as Copymasters.

In this unit students explore how bar graphs and pie graphs can show different aspects of the data. Bar graphs show the number differences between data categories and pie graphs can be used to clearly show proportional differences between data categories.

Level Three > Statistics
Achievement Objectives:

Achievement Objective: Conduct investigations using the statistical enquiry cycle: gathering, sorting, and displaying multivariate category and whole-number data and simple time-series data to answer questions; identifying patterns and trends in context, within and between data sets; communicating findings, using data displays.
Achievement Objective: Evaluate the effectiveness of different displays in representing the findings of a statistical investigation or probability activity undertaken by others.

Achievement Objective: Evaluate the effectiveness of different displays in representing the findings of a statistical investigation or probability activity undertaken by others.

Statements about Probability

In this unit students make spinners to show the probability of events. They will make statements about probabilities shown on spinners and evaluate statements made by other classmates.

Level Two > Statistics
Achievement Objectives:

Achievement Objective: Compare statements with the features of simple data displays from statistical investigations or probability activities undertaken by others.
Achievement Objective: Investigate simple situations that involve elements of chance, recognising equal and different likelihoods and acknowledging uncertainty.

True or False

In this unit students make statements about data displays. Students evaluate statements as true or false using the features of the data to support their evaluation.

Level Two > Statistics
Achievement Objectives:

Achievement Objective: Conduct investigations using the statistical enquiry cycle: posing and answering questions; gathering, sorting, and displaying category and whole-number data; communicating findings based on the data.
Achievement Objective: Compare statements with the features of simple data displays from statistical investigations or probability activities undertaken by others.

Match ups

In this unit we make statements about data displays, decide if statements made by others match the data shown, and match appropriate statements to a data display. 

Level One > Statistics
Achievement Objectives:

Achievement Objective: Interpret statements made by others from statistical investigations and probability activities.
Achievement Objective: Conduct investigations using the statistical enquiry cycle: posing and answering questions; gathering, sorting and counting, and displaying category data; discussing the results.

Place Value Blocks

This unit uses one of the digital learning object, Place Value Blocks, to support students as they investigate the place value of numbers up to 9999. The numbers are represented using place value blocks.  

The knowledge section of the New Zealand Number Framework outlines the important items of knowledge that students should learn as they progress through the strategy stages. This unit of work and the associated learning object are useful for students at stage 5, Early Additive Part-Whole, of the Number Framework.  

Level Two > Number and Algebra
Achievement Objectives:

Achievement Objective: Know how many ones, tens, and hundreds are in whole numbers to at least 1000.

Te Rōrahi

Ko te kaupapa nei, he tirotiro i te tikanga o te rōrahi, he tātai i te rōrahi o te poro-tapawhā hāngai, he tirotiro hoki i te hononga o te rōrahi me te horahanga papa.

Te Whakaari Raraunga

Ka tirohia te kauwhata rautō me te kauwhata tāhei.  Kia rua pea ngā rā mahi ki ia momo kauwhata, ā, kia kotahi te rā hei aromatawai, hei whakakapi i ngā mahi.
