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 Tests
  • 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 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.
