AusVELS PROGRESSION POINTS

Mathematics : 6

  • Investigate combinations of translations, reflections and rotations, with and without the use of digital technologies
  • Introduce the Cartesian coordinate system using all four quadrants
  • Investigate, with and without digital technologies, angles on a straight line, angles at a point and vertically opposite angles. Use results to find unknown angles
  • Investigate, with and without digital technologies, angles on a straight line, angles at a point and vertically opposite angles. Use results to find unknown angles

Mathematics : 7

  • Describe translations, reflections in an axis, and rotations of multiples of 90? on the Cartesian plane using coordinates. Identify line and rotational symmetries
  • Describe translations, reflections in an axis, and rotations of multiples of 90? on the Cartesian plane using coordinates. Identify line and rotational symmetries
  • Identify corresponding, alternate and co-interior angles when two straight lines are crossed by a transversal
  • Investigate conditions for two lines to be parallel and solve simple numerical problems using reasoning
  • Demonstrate that the angle sum of a triangle is 180? and use this to find the angle sum of a quadrilateral
  • Classify triangles according to their side and angle properties and describe quadrilaterals

Mathematics : 8

  • Solve linear equations using algebraic and graphical techniques. Verify solutions by substitution
  • Plot linear relationships on the Cartesian plane with and without the use of digital technologies

Mathematics : 9

  • Use similarity to investigate the constancy of the sine, cosine and tangent ratios for a given angle in right-angled triangles
  • Apply trigonometry to solve right-angled triangle problems
  • Investigate Pythagoras' Theorem and its application to solving simple problems involving right angled triangles

 

 

Other Goals

General Capabilities - Personal and social capability

Reflective practice

reflect on and make realistic assessments of their abilities, identifying characteristics that contribute to or limit their effectiveness as learners, friends and community members (for example developing personal learning plans that take account of their strengths and challenges)

Working independently and showing initiative

are accountable for their own learning, working independently, and setting and monitoring personal goals

recognise the value of working independently, taking initiative to do so where appropriate

Goal setting and tracking

set and keep track of personal and academic goals

 

Term 3 - Week 2

Your task is to tutor another student to understand a part of your learning goal within this unit. 

Your student will be decided based on what your learning goal is. 

You need to prepare a lesson, and a video/slideshow that describes the goal, and breaks down all the background information they will need. Plan your lesson using a range of representations (pictures/videos, numbers and words), an example, and questions they can practise. 

You will be assessed by your teacher, on your thinking, and your 'student' on how well they understood.

 

 

Looking at a soccer pitch, label all the mathematical properties of the pitch. (Can be done individually)

 

Students then complete a range of task that require them to mark on the players, drawing their angles on the soccer pitch.

 

   Player A kicks a goal to the centre of the net, on a 63degree angle.

   Player B kicks a goal to the centre of the net, on a 104degree angle.

   Player C kicks a goal to the centre of the net, on a 104degree angle.

Player D bounces the ball off his head to the corner of the net, and it rebounds off at a 80
