Students learning numeracy

The NSW Board of Studies provides the Mathematics Syllabus K–6 upon which the students’ learning in Maths is based.

The Mathematics K – 6 Syllabus is organised into six strands – one process strand, Working Mathematically, and the five content strands: Number, Patterns and Algebra, Data, Measurement, and Space and Geometry. Working mathematically encompasses processes that are embedded into the other five strands through the content. Five hours each week is spent on Mathematics.

Each grade supports the effective pedagogy of Mathematics through the implementation of DENS Time. DENS, Developing Efficient Numeracy Strategies, is a program that is pivotal in ensuring that students' current understandings and problem solving strategies across the strands are built on and that children are taken to the next step in their learning.

A feature of this plan is the assessment and data gathering process, which includes clinical one-on-one interviews with students to map effective starting points in numeracy
