Term 1 Year 6PLAT MARKERS Weeks: 1-5 / Term 1 Year 6PLAT MARKERS Weeks: 6-10
Whole Number
Investigate everyday situations that use integers; locate and represent these numbers on a number line
  • recognise the location of negative whole numbers in relation to zero and place them on a number line
  • use the term 'integers' to describe positive and negative whole numbers and zero
  • interpret integers in everyday contexts, eg temperature
  • investigate negative whole numbers and the number patterns created when counting backwards on a calculator
  • recognise that negative whole numbers can result from subtraction
ask 'What if' questions, eg 'What happens if we subtract a larger number from a smaller number on a calculator?'
Fractions & Decimals
Compare fractions with related denominators and locate and represent them on a number line (ACMNA125)
  • model, compare & represent fractions with denominator of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 100 of a whole object, a whole shape & a collection of objects
  • compare the relative size of fractions drawn on the same diagram
  • compare & order simple fractions with related denominators using strategies such as diagrams, the number line, or equivalent fractions egwrite 3/5,3/10,1 1/10,4/5 and 7/10 in ascending order
  • find equivalent fractions by re-dividing the whole, using diagrams & number lines record equivalent fractions using diagrams & numerals
  • write fractions in their 'simplest form' by dividing the numerator & the denominator by a common factor
  • recognise that a fraction in its simplest form represents the same value as the original fraction
  • apply knowledge of equivalent fractions to convert between units of time
Patterns & Algebra

/ Multiplication & Division
solve word problems involving multiplication & division
  • use appropriate language to compare quantities
  • use a table/similar organiser to record methods to solve problems
  • recognise symbols used to record speed in kilometres per hour
  • solve simple problems involving speed

  • findalocationonamapthatisinagivendirectionfromatownorlandmark,eglocatea townthatisnorth-eastofBrokenHill
  • describethedirectionofonelocationrelativetoanother,
  • eg'Darwinisnorth-westofSydney'
Volume & Capacity
Connectvolume andcapacity and their units of measurement(ACMMG138)
  • select the appropriate unit to measure volume and capacity
  • demonstrate that a cube of side 10cm will displace 1litre of water
  • demonstrate, by using a medicine cup, that a cube of side 1cm will displace 1mL of water equate 1cubic centimetre to 1millilitre and 1000cubic centimetres to 1litre
  • find the volumes of irregular solids in cubic centimetres using a displacement strategy
Connectdecimal representations to the metric system (ACMMG135)
  • recognise the equivalence of whole-number and decimal representations of measurements of capacities, eg375 mL is the same as 0.375 L
  • interpret decimal notation for volumes and capacities, eg8.7 L is the same as 8 litres and 700 millilitres
  • record volume and capacity using decimal notation to three decimal places, eg1.275L
