Mathematics
This support resource provides suggestions to support students with additional content to extend and enrich their study of the Year 10 Mathematics curriculum.
Introduction
The Australian Curriculum: Mathematics F–10 provides students with essential mathematical knowledge, skills, procedures and processes in number, algebra, measurement, space, statistics and probability.
It develops the numeracy capabilities that all students need in their personal, work and civic lives, and provides the fundamentals on which mathematical specialties and professional applications of mathematics are built.
In Year 10, students also consider possible pathways to study senior secondary Mathematics.
Preparation for subsequent study of subjects based on ACARA’s Mathematical Methods Units 1 and 2 can be supported by further development of aspects of mathematics from Year 10. This provides a basis for building understanding that underpins these and equivalent courses of study.
The following advice provides suggestions for further content and skill development in this regard, with some illustrative examples.
Teachers can draw on these suggestions as applicable to support students with additional content to extend and enrich their study of the Year 10 Mathematics curriculum.
