Australian Curriculum Maths Activities for Every Year Level
Mathematics has been designated as a learning area by ACARA because, according to the government, 'The study of mathematics is central to the learning, development and prospects of all young Australians.'
After all, without understanding numbers and developing mathematical proficiency, our students would not be able to make financial payments, interpret scientific data, make informed decisions in business and so much more.
With that focus on building a future for young Australians in mind, Teach Starter's mathematics resources are created and carefully reviewed by expert maths teachers on our team to help your students become motivated and confident learners.
With worksheets and activities for students from early years classrooms to upper years in this collection, here's just a taste of what is covered in the curriculum-aligned resources you'll find as you explore!
