Casey has demonstrated extensive knowledge and understanding of analog and digital time on the hour, half-hour and beyond. Three activities have been matched to an appropriate time of day, showing a very high level of competence in transferring mathematical concepts to real-life situations. Although am or pm has not been indicated, digital and analog times have been accurately matched and precisely recorded using correct placement, size and shape of numerals and hands on the clock faces. This work sample demonstrates characteristics of work typically produced by a student performing at grade A standard at the end of Stage 1.
Grade A
The student has an extensive knowledge and understanding of the content and can readily apply this knowledge. In addition, the student has achieved a very high level of competence in the processes and skills and can apply these skills to new situations.Foundation Statement strands
The following strands are covered in this activity:
- Working Mathematically
Students ask questions and use objects, diagrams and technology to explore mathematical problems. They link mathematical ideas and use everyday language, some mathematical language and diagrams to explain how answers were obtained. - Measurement and Data
Students estimate, measure, compare and record using informal units for length, area, volume, capacity and mass. They recognise the need for formal units of length and use the metre and centimetre to measure length and distance. Students use a calendar to identify the date and name and order the months and the seasons of the year. They use informal units to compare and order the duration of events and tell the time on the half-hour. Students gather, organise, display and interpret data using column and picture graphs.
