Overview

Top-ups and Swap-outs for Currency and Measurement - Year 3 is a Mathematics unit for Year 3 students. It works in cooperation with Connecting Maths Concepts (CMC) to ensure that delivery of CMC aligns with Australian Curriculum gap requirements. It aligns to the Australian Curriculum:
  • Use combinations of shapes and objects to make or approximate more complex shapes and objects in the environment (AC9M3SP01)
  • Analyse the effectiveness of different displays or visualisations in illustrating and comparing data distributions, then discuss the shape of (AC9M3ST02)
  • Represent money values in multiple ways and count the change required for simple transactions to the nearest five cents (ACMNA059)
  • Measure, order and compare objects using familiar metric units of length, mass and capacity (ACMMG061)
  • Tell time to the minute and investigate the relationship between units of time (ACMMG062)
Learning Objectives
  • Define the terms: pyramid, polygon and net, and describe the process of using nets to construct three-dimensional shapes
  • Construct a triangular-based pyramid (tetrahedron)
  • Define the term: prism and identify the net of a prism
  • Match 3D shapes to their net
  • Interpret picture graphs, bar graphs and line graphs
  • Compare data displayed as picture graphs, bar graphs and line graphs
  • Define symmetry and identify symmetry in the environment
  • Draw single and multiple lines of symmetry Identify symmetry in cave art and 2D shapes

Assessment
Mastery Test
Mastery Tests are given at the end of every 10 lessons, designed to be taught over a two-week cycle. Mastery Tests allow teachers to monitor student understanding of the concepts taught in previous lessons and to identify where reteaching is needed. The Teaching Guide contains the Mastery Test script. Mastery Tests are delivered using a presentation script, board displays and a handout for students. The Teaching Guide also contains the Answer Key.

Cumulative Tests
There are two Cumulative Tests for Swap-Outs that are completed after lesson 60 and lesson 120. The Cumulative Tests are in the Teaching Guide. Teachers copy the assessment and distribute to students at testing time.
