Numeracy


At Monash we want every student to develop a conceptual understanding of the knowledge, skills and understandings associated with the Mathematics curriculum. We have a whole school scope and sequence which is aligned with the Australian Curriculum and have created learning intentions which reflect different levels of cognitive behaviour. These include, applying knowledge, analysing, comparing, synthesising, reflecting and explaining concepts using mathematical vocabulary, through a problem solving lens. Teachers and students are focusing on the critical thinking behind Mathematics, not just the correct answer.  Students are assessed in: - Number, Algebra, Measurement, Geometry, Statistics and Probability.
Students participating in maths rotations. A numeracy bump it up wall where the students can self-assess their numeracy work and identify improvements to be made.
