Course Overview
Year 7 students will be starting stage 4 maths with new math concepts, mathematical terminology, algebraic notation, diagrams, text and tables to communicate mathematical ideas, and link concepts and processes within and between mathematical contexts. Students will apply their mathematical knowledge, skills and understanding in analysing real-life situations and in systematically exploring and solving problems using technology where appropriate. Hence students will start to develop fluency with a range of mental strategies, constructing and interpreting data, calculating variety measurements and using algebraic techniques to solve familiar problems. In solving particular problems, they compare the strengths and weaknesses of different strategies and solutions.

Course Overview
Year 7 students will begin to explore a variety of texts to respond to a variety of texts critically, imaginatively and interpretively and compose accurate, clear and coherent texts. Student will engage in personal, social and learning contexts with increasing control and understanding of the form and features of language and structures of texts, and with increasing awareness of purpose, audience and context. Students will learn to make connections between texts, they recognise the main ideas and points of view, and the ways in which texts seek to position responders. Also they make decisions about whether content and language are appropriate to purpose, audience and context. In speaking, writing and representing, students will shape meaning through the thoughtful selection and ordering of appropriate content and by drawing on a widening repertoire of language choices. They will constructively analyse and evaluate their own and others’ compositions and they articulate their response to texts and to the process and experience of composing.
