PIALBA STATE SCHOOL: MATHEMATICS YEAR 4 SEMESTER 1 UNIT 2 TERM 2 PLAN
Proficiency Strands
At this Year level:
• understanding includes making connections between representations of numbers, partitioning and combining numbers flexibly, extending place value to decimals, using appropriate language to communicate times and describing properties of symmetrical shapes
• fluency includes recalling multiplication tables, communicating sequences of simple fractions, using instruments to measure accurately, creating patterns with shapes and their transformations and collecting and recording data
• problem-solving includes formulating, modelling and recording authentic situations involving operations, comparing large numbers with each other, comparing time durations and using properties of numbers to continue patterns
• reasoning includes using generalising from number properties and results of calculations, deriving strategies for unfamiliar multiplication and division tasks, comparing angles, communicating information using graphical displays and evaluating the appropriateness of different displays.
Pedagogical Practices Levering Digitally Learning Environments Learning PartnershipsPedagogical Practices are used to design, monitor and assess learning.
Leveraging digital accelerates access to knowledge beyond the classroom and cultivates student driven deep learning.
