Mathematics
The Mathematics key learning area helps students to understand knowing about mathematics, knowing how to do mathematics and knowing when and where to use it.
Students in Queensland Schools study the mathematical strands of Number, Patterns and Algebra, Measurement, Chance, Data and Spatial concepts.
Students gain mathematical understandings and skills through a range of purposeful activities requiring them to:
- Identify and analyse information
- Create mathematical models
- Pose and solve mathematical problems
- Make informed decisions
- Reflect on the reasonableness of their solutions
Thinking, reasoning and working mathematically engages students with the mathematics inherent in many contexts enabling them to apply relevant mathematical knowledge, procedures and strategies in a range of situations both life-related and purely mathematical.
