TCHE2279-2280 Knowledge of Mathematical Content Audit
One of the key professional Standards for Graduating Teachers (see www.vit.vic.edu,au) is: Teachers know the content they teach.
The purpose of this audit is to identify any areas where you feel some further work is needed to demonstrate that you know the mathematical content you are expected to
be able to teach as a graduating primary school teacher.
You are asked to read each section and/or descriptor of the Year 6 Australian Curriculum: Mathematics* below and colour the bubble (green, amber or red) according to
your level of knowledge and confidence.
Green: You understand what this means and you feel confident that you could demonstrate this by creating/solving one or more tasks at this level.
Amber: You feel you have some understanding of what this means but do not feel confident that you could create/solve an illustrative task at this level.
Red: You do not feel that you really understand what this means and/or you are not confident that you could create/solve an illustrative task at this level.
The highlighted terms in the text below are hot-linked to a glossary if you look at the descriptors on the ACARA website (see also Siemon et al, 2011).
Year 6 Level Description
The proficiency strands Understanding, Fluency, Problem Solving and Reasoning are an integral part of mathematics content across the three content strands: Number and
Algebra, Measurement and Geometry, and Statistics and Probability. The proficiencies reinforce the significance of working mathematically within the content and
describe how the content is explored or developed. They provide the language to build in the developmental aspects of the learning of mathematics.
At this year level: Rating
Understanding includes describing properties of different sets of numbers, using fractions and decimals to describe probabilities, representing fractions and decimals
in various ways and describing connections between them, and making reasonable estimations Fluency includes representing integers on a number line, calculating
simple percentages, using brackets appropriately, converting between fractions and decimals, using operations with fractions, decimals and percentages, measuring using
metric units, and interpreting timetables Problem Solving includes formulating and solving authentic problems using fractions, decimals, percentages and
measurements, interpreting secondary data displays, and finding the size of unknown angles
Reasoning includes explaining mental strategies for performing calculations, describing results for continuing number sequences, explaining the transformation of one
shape into another, explaining why the actual results of chance experiments may differ from expected results
