Shape and Space
Conceptual Understandings:

Geometric shapes and vocabulary are useful for representing and describing objects and events in real-world situations.

Shapes are classified and named according to their properties.

Some shapes are made up of parts that repeat in some way.

Objects and events have attributes that can be measured using appropriate tools.

Data Handling

Data can be collected, organized, displayed and analysed in different ways.

Information can be expressed as organized and structured data.

Objects and events can be organized in different ways.

Different graph forms highlight different aspects of data more effectively.

Data can be collected, organized, displayed and analysed in different ways (Phase 3).

Probability can be based on experimental events in daily life.

When constructing meaning, students:

Understand the common language used to describe shapes

Understand the properties of regular and irregular polygons

Understand that visualization of shape and space is a strategy for solving problems

Understand that there are relationships among and between 2D and 3D shapes

Understand that 2D and 3D shapes can be created by putting together and/or taking apart other shapes

Understand that geometric shapes are useful for representing real-world situations

Understand an angle as a measure of rotation

When transferring meaning into symbols, students:

Sort, describe and model regular and irregular polygons

Sort, describe and label 2D and 3D shapes

Represent ideas about the real world using geometric vocabulary and symbols, for example, through oral description, drawing, modelling, labelling

Describe and/or represent mental images of objects, patterns and paths

Analyse and describe the relationships between 2D and 3D shapes

Analyse angles by comparing and describing rotations; whole turn; half turn; quarter turn; north, south, east and west on a compass

When applying with understanding, students:

Analyse and describe 2D and 3D shapes, including regular and irregular polygons, using geometrical vocabulary

Analyse and use what they know about 3D shapes to describe and work with 2D shapes
