Geometry & Measurement
-
6.GM.1.1
Measurement
• Measure at a level of precision appropriate to the task.
• Apply the relationships between units in the metric system, including the units for measuring different attributes and derived measures.
• Calculate volumes, including prisms, pyramids, cones, and spheres, using formulae. -
-
6.GM.1.2
Shape
• Deduce and apply the angle properties related to circles.
• Recognise when shapes are similar and use proportional reasoning to fi nd an unknown length.
• Use trigonometric ratios and Pythagoras’ theorem in two and three dimensions. -
-
6.GM.1.3
Position and orientation
• Use a co-ordinate plane or map to show points in common and areas contained by two or more loci. -
-
6.GM.1.4
Transformation
• Compare and apply single and multiple transformations.
• Analyse symmetrical patterns by the transformations used to create them. -

6.NA.1.1
Number strategies and knowledge
• Apply direct and inverse relationships with linear proportions.
• Extend powers to include integers and fractions.
• Apply everyday compounding rates.
• Find optimal solutions, using numerical approaches. -
-
6.NA.1.2
Equations and expressions
• Form and solve linear equations and inequations, quadratic and simple exponential equations, and simultaneous equations with two unknowns. -
-
6.NA.1.3
Patterns and relationships
• Generalise the properties of operations with rational numbers, including the properties of exponents.

Statistics
-
6.S.1.1
Statistical investigation
• Plan and conduct investigations using the statistical enquiry cycle:
– justifying the variables and measures used;
– managing sources of variation, including through the use of random sampling;
– identifying and communicating features in context (trends, relationships between variables, and differences within and between distributions), using multiple displays;
– making informal inferences about populations from sample data;
– justifying findings, using displays and measures -
-
6.S.1.2
Statistical literacy
• Evaluate statistical reports in the media by relating the displays, statistics, processes, and probabilities used to the claims made. -
6.S.1.3
Probability
• Investigate situations that involve elements of chance:
– comparing discrete theoretical distributions and experimental distributions, appreciating the role of sample size;
– calculating probabilities in discrete situations. -
