Use this video as a springboard to explore volume of composite shapes, adjusting numbers to make calculations friendlier and draw on reasoning and mathematical modelling.

• TLF-IDA004326

This collaborative task challenges students to assemble 27 small cubes as one large 3 by 3 by 3 cube, with 9 different colours visible on each face. The task develops spatial awareness, particularly when the task is extended beyond creating a large cube.

Use these diagnostic tasks, Volume of prisms (1) and Volume of prisms (2), to assess a student’s understanding of working out the volume of rectangular prisms and a formula for volume.

• TLF-IDA003550

Use this diagnostic task to assess what students know about volume and units to measure and compare volumes.

• TLF-IDA004917

In this lesson, students study the concept of triangle inequality, which determines if three positive numbers can serve as the side lengths of a triangle. Students experiment with various combinations of three natural numbers. They investigate whether these numbers can form a triangle and classify and construct the corresponding ...

This is the third in a series of Syllabus bites related to transformations on the Cartesian plane. Students further their understanding of translation and reflection and explore relationships between these two transformations.

• TLF-IDA004606

In this lesson, students use algebra tiles to solve one-variable linear equations involving multiplication and division, applying these skills in real-world contexts to enhance their understanding.

• TLF-IDA004059

This work sample demonstrates evidence of student learning in relation to aspects of the achievement standards for Year 7 Mathematics. The primary purpose for the work sample is to demonstrate the standard, so the focus is on what is evident in the sample not how it was created. The sample is an authentic representation ...
