What you'll learn
By the end of Level 6, you will confidently use integers to describe positions on number lines and the Cartesian plane. You’ll explore and solve problems using prime, composite, square and triangular numbers.
You’ll be able to order and explain common fractions, add and subtract fractions with related denominators, and use all four operations with decimals. You’ll connect decimals to metric measurements and solve problems involving fractions, decimals and percentages — including calculating parts of a whole and using estimation strategies.
You’ll apply mathematical modelling to solve real-life financial and practical problems, especially those involving percentages and rational numbers. You’ll learn to plan, solve and justify your approach.
You’ll solve equations to find unknown values and identify patterns and rules in number sequences. You'll design and use algorithms to create number sets using a rule.
You’ll interpret and use timetables, measure and calculate elapsed time, and convert between units such as length, mass and capacity. You’ll also apply the formula for the area of a rectangle and use angle properties to solve measurement problems.
You’ll identify cross-sections of right prisms, create tessellating patterns with transformations, and plot ordered pairs in all four quadrants of the Cartesian plane.
In statistics, you’ll compare data sets (like survey results) and use digital tools to analyse them. You’ll also evaluate how statistics are used in media and real-world arguments.
In probability, you’ll assign and compare probabilities using fractions, decimals and percentages. You’ll run simulations with digital tools, record the outcomes of chance experiments, and compare observed results to expected probabilities.
