MA3-8NA

Analyses and creates geometric and number patterns, constructs and completes number sentences, and locates points on the Cartesian plane

Outcomes

Patterns and Algebra 1
- Describe, continue and create patterns with fractions, decimals and whole numbers resulting from addition and subtraction (ACMNA107)
  - Identify, continue and create simple number patterns involving addition and subtraction
    
    Play Activities 13
    
    Examples
  - Describe patterns using the terms 'increase' and 'decrease', eg for the pattern 48, 41, 34, 27, ..., 'The terms decrease by seven'
    
    Play Activities 7
    
    Examples
- Use equivalent number sentences involving multiplication and division to find unknown quantities (ACMNA121)
Patterns and Algebra 2
- Continue and create sequences involving whole numbers, fractions and decimals; describe the rule used to create the sequence (ACMNA133)
  - Continue and create number patterns, with and without the use of digital technologies, using whole numbers, fractions and decimals, eg 1/4, 1/8, 1/16,... or 1.25, 2.5, 5, ...
    
    Play Activities 118
    
    Examples
- Introduce the Cartesian coordinate system using all four quadrants (ACMMG143)
  - Recognise that the number plane (Cartesian plane) is a visual way of describing location on a grid
    
    Play Activities 5
    
    Examples
  - Recognise that the number plane consists of a horizontal axis (x-axis) and a vertical axis (y-axis), creating four quadrants
