The aim of the Assessment Resource Centre website is to support and enhance professional practice in the assessment and reporting of student achievement across Kindergarten to Year 12. It has been developed primarily for teachers, although parents and students will also find it useful.
The Mathematics 7-8 section of the site offers samples of students' work for a range of maths assessment activities and aligns them to Stage 4 reporting grades.
The Mathematics 9-10 section of the site offers samples of students work for a range of maths assessment activities and aligns them to Stage 5 reporting grades. View the Year 10 Course performance descriptors for mathematics that determine School Certificate grades.
The framework outlines how students move from using naive strategies to increasingly sophisticated strategies in order to solve number problems. It can be used to sequence instruction.
This website explains mental computation and offers activities to develop students' mental computation strategies.
