It contains three content strands, each divided into a number of sub-strands or topics, which set out what needs to be learnt. 'The Number and Algebra' and 'Measurement and Geometry' strands each have 4 sub-strands, and the 'Statistics and Probability' strand has been divided into 2 substrands. Entwined with these are the four proficiency strands of Understanding, Fluency, Problem solving and Reasoning, which determine how the content is studied and developed so that mathematical learning and understanding continue to progress over the years. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is most important for a child to be aware that each sub-strand is not an isolated topic but is interrelated with the others, and also with other subjects, for example, science and geography. Technology such as computers, touch pad applications and calculators should be utilised as an aid, when appropriate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Year 3, the emphasis is on mathematical experiences that are meaningful in real life.

We constantly have to solve problems which require mathematical thinking whether spatial, involving manipulating numbers, or needing an understanding of measurement in one form or another. The over-riding aim of the Australian curriculum is to develop confident students who are able to use their knowledge and understanding of mathematics effectively and efficiently in their everyday lives, regardless of where they live. This book supports that aim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Australian National Curriculum, developed by ACARA, states that, by the end of Year 3, students should be able to do the following:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003erecognise the connection between addition and subtraction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003esolve problems using efficient strategies for multiplication.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emodel and represent unit fractions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003erepresent money values in various ways.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eidentify symmetry in the environment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ematch positions on maps with given information.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003erecognise angles in real life situations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003einterpret and compare data displays.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ecount to and from 10 000.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eclassify numbers as either even or odd.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003erecall addition and multiplication facts for single digit numbers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ecorrectly count out change from financial transactions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003econtinue number patterns involving addition and subtraction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003euse metric units for length, mass and capacity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003etell the time to the nearest minute.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emake models of three-dimensional objects.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003econduct chance experiments and list possible outcomes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ecarry out simple data investigations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use this book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach of the sub-strands within the three major strands is dealt with separately.

In addition, there are carefully graded exercises which will provide confidence and success to the weaker students, while at the same time there are more difficult levels to extend and stimulate students of all ability groups. It will be very beneficial to parents, because it will provide them with a very structured and clear idea of the new syllabus, and what their children should know by the end of Year 5. If their child has a particular problem (say on adding fractions) it is very easy to find the page and explanations relating to that idea – and hence help their child.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eMost important of all, it will prove to be an excellent text and reference for students of all ability groups. The format and layout makes it very much easier for a pupil to thoroughly master one major topic in a relatively short period of time, because it is so easy to see how each idea is linked to the previous one. It has all the rules and corresponding examples clearly set out topic, page by page. In addition it teaches the pupils to read explanations, as well as to look back and research similar problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the author, Warwick Marlin: \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"This book has proved difficult to write, simply because it is a New Curriculum, and very little in depth content description has been given by ACARA. Therefore I have included many more concepts (than those stated in the curriculum guideline) to make certain that every topic is more than adequately covered. Also, I have added many extension concepts, like percentages, which are only meant to be introduced in Grade 6. Primary school Maths is understood more through practice and doing, and therefore I have tried to keep the explanations as short and clear as possible, while at the same time I have illustrated ideas with examples and diagrams wherever possible. In summary, I sincerely believe that this book will provide greater understanding, confidence, enjoyment, and success to all students who use it.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnderstanding Maths\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e is a series of mathematics books with content aligned to the F–10 Australian Mathematics Curriculum (v9.0).
