New Zealand Curriculum Level 3
In a range of meaningful contexts, students will be engaged in thinking mathematically and statistically. They will solve problems and model situations that require them to:

National Standards
In contexts that require them to solve problems or model situations, students will be able to:
|
Measurement
- Use linear scales and whole numbers of metric units for length, area, volume and capacity, weight (mass), angle, temperature, and time.
- Find areas of rectangles and volumes of cuboids by applying multiplication.
Shape
- Classify plane shapes and prisms by their spatial features.
- Represent objects with drawings and models.
Position and orientation
- Use a co-ordinate system or the language of direction and distance to specify locations and describe paths.
Transformation
- Describe the transformations (reflection, rotation, translation, or enlargement) that have mapped one object onto another.
|
- measure time and the attributes of objects, choosing appropriate standard units and working with them to the nearest tenth
- sort two- and three-dimensional shapes, considering the presence and/or absence of features simultaneously and justifying the decisions made
- represent and describe the results of reflection, rotation, and translation on shapes;
- create nets for rectangular prisms
- draw plan, front, and side views of objects
- describe locations and give directions, using grid references and points of the compass.
|
- measure time and the attributes of objects, choosing appropriate standard units
- use arrays to find the areas of rectangles and the volumes of cuboids, given whole-number dimensions
- sort two- and three-dimensional shapes (including prisms), considering given properties simultaneously and justifying the decisions made
- represent and describe the results of reflection, rotation, and translation on shapes or patterns
- identify nets for rectangular prisms
- draw or make objects, given their plan, front, and side views
- describe locations and give directions, using grid references, turns, and points of the compass.
