Victorian Curriculum F10 Version 2.0 Understanding the revisions to the Mathematics learning area Primary Wednesday 23 August 2023

Revising the Victorian Curriculum F10 Acknowledgment of Country I would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the many lands across Victoria on which each of you are living, learning and working from today. For myself and those of us in the Melbourne metropolitan area, we acknowledge the traditional custodians of the Kulin Nations. When acknowledging Country, we recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples spiritual and cultural connection to Country/Place and acknowledge their continued care of the lands and waterways over generations, while celebrating the continuation of a living culture that has a unique role in this region. I would like to pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging, for they hold the memories, traditions, culture and hopes of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples across the nation, and hope they will walk with us on our journey.

The VCAA is a statutory authority primarily accountable to the Minister for Education, serving both government and non-government schools designs, develops and evaluates curriculum and assessment products and services develops and implements the following curriculums and assessment: o Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework: Birth to 8 years o Early Years assessment o Victorian F 10 curriculum o Victorian F 10 assessment o Senior Secondary curriculum and assessment (VCE, VM, VPC) In the context of the VCAA: curriculum means the course design, including content, support materials and other learning resources. Reporting and pedagogy sit outside the remit of the VCAA. These are sector authority responsibilities.

Objectives alignment with the Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework 1 2 5 6 maintaining Victorian priorities and standards provide senior secondary pathways more teachable and manageable 7 3 familiarisation and support resources that support Victorian teachers improve achievement standards 8 4 a high-quality curriculum that teachers can implement with confidence a digital platform for the curriculum that is fit for purpose, accessible and user-friendly

What has not changed? Overarching structure of the Victorian Curriculum F 10 will not change Current learning areas, capabilities and cross-curriculum priorities will remain Recognises the continuing importance of a discipline-based approach to learning Continue to offer EAL and Levels A D curriculum. These are to be revised shortly and incorporated into the Victorian Curriculum F 10 Version 2.0 in late 2024 (dates to be confirmed)

Reporting Reporting requirements are set by the sector authorities All Victorian government and Catholic schools are required to provide written reports on student achievement against the Victorian Curriculum F 10 achievement standards for every student at least twice per year The Victorian Curriculum F 10 Version 2.0 will include revisions to the achievement standards to provide clarity and show progression Specific information can be found by contacting the: Department of Education Catholic Education Victoria Network

Structural revisions overview The Mathematics curriculum introduction material: Rationale, Aims, Learning In Content now organised under 6 strands Level descriptions greater detail about the content, skills and expected outcomes at each level Achievement standards clearer articulation, progression and connection to content descriptions Content descriptions clearer articulation of the essential mathematical facts, procedures and skills Elaborations more examples to empower teachers to engage with the content

Levels F6 key revisions There are only 5 content strands at Foundation to Level 2 with Probability commencing at Level 3 to permit consolidation of foundational counting and abstract engagement strategies (numerals, fractions, time) Greater emphasis on mathematical modelling and statistical investigation Increased prominence of computational and algorithmic thinking Content re-sequenced to provide students opportunity to consolidate and master key skills (e.g. time to half hour) Some content descriptions have been combined to strengthen connections in sequencing and add clarity to the content expectations

Mathematics Version 2.0 Rationale Aims Structure Learning In Mathematics Understanding Mathematics Version 2.0 Meeting diverse needs of learners Mathematical proficiencies Mathematical processes Curriculum (F 10) Level Descriptions Achievement standards Content descriptions Curriculum supporting resources Comparison of curriculums document Scope and sequence Glossary https://victoriancurriculum.vcaa.vic.edu.au/mathematics/mathematics-version-2-0/curriculum/f-10

Mathematics Version 2.0: Aims develop useful mathematical and numeracy skills for everyday life and work, as emerging active and critical citizens in a technological world become confident, proficient, effective and adaptive users of mathematics become effective communicators of mathematics who can investigate, represent and interpret situations in their personal and work lives, think critically, and make choices as active, engaged, numerate citizens develop proficiency with mathematical concepts, skills, procedures and processes, and use them to demonstrate mastery in mathematics as they pose and solve problems, and reason with number, algebra, measurement, space, statistics and probability

Mathematics Version 2.0: Aims make connections between areas of mathematics and apply mathematics to model situations in various fields and disciplines develop a positive disposition towards mathematics, recognising it as an accessible and useful discipline to study appreciate mathematics as a discipline its history, ideas, problems and applications, aesthetics and philosophy

The 6 strands 6 strands Number Algebra Measurement Space Statistics Probability The dual-strands have been decoupled now 6 individual strands Teachers can continue to use the familiar connections between strand content and can also now explore new connections across different strand pairings For example, teachers may choose to connect content from the Number and Space strands, or the Algebra and Measurement strands, when designing teaching and learning units
