• TLF-IDM024883

This sequence of four lessons integrates content in number and measurement to deepen students' understanding and confidence working with larger numbers. Students work flexibly with numbers up to 10 000 as they determine suitable dimensions for a container that can hold 10 000 centicubes. They are challenged to plan, construct ...

Selected links to a range of interactive online resources for the study of number in Foundation to Year 6 Mathematics.

• TLF-IDA003175

This planning resource for Year 4 is for the topic of Place value. Students apply their understanding of fractions and division to divide a whole (rectangle model) into 10 equal pieces. They learn that each piece represents 0.1 or one tenth of the length of the original whole.

• TLF-IDA003871

This sequence of 15 lessons teaches students about various addition and subtractions methods and where to appropriately apply them.

• TLF-IDA002783

In this lesson students learn about needs and wants whilst budgeting for a birthday party. Students gather and compare data about how their classmates celebrate birthdays. They are then introduced to budgeting in the context of planning a party. They are asked to consider how needs and wants impact their spending choices ...

• TLF-IDA003566

This comprehensive resource describes the progression of number-related ideas showing the relationship to other curriculum strands. The resource demonstrates examples of relevant teaching strategies, investigations, activity plans and connected concepts in number including teaching and cultural implications.

• TLF-IDL871

Test your understanding of decimal place value with whole numbers. Receive a starting number, such as 3786, and work towards turning it into a target number, 7664. Spin a random digit, choose its decimal place value and use the given operation (either addition or subtraction) on your starting number. Be careful not to overshoot ...

• TLF-IDM024876

This sequence of four lessons explores concepts around informal area and symmetry. Students design an 'expanded square' where approximately half the area of the original square is flipped to the outside. The lessons provide opportunities for students to devise and use methods to informally measure area, record their mathematical ...

• TLF-IDM021832

This lesson aims to build students' algebraic reasoning and understanding of number as they explore computation on the number chart. Students explore the moves of a king chess piece and how the value of the numbers change as he moves. This builds into an algebraic exploration of equivalent values that can be found on the ...
