Description

Represent real-world problems with number sentences, bar models, or diagrams, and interpret the mathematical result back in context

Mastery Evidence
  • Choose and write an appropriate number sentence for a measurement or money word problem
  • Draw a bar model or diagram to represent a two-step or comparison problem
  • Interpret the numerical answer in context (e.g. '15 cm means the ribbon is 15 centimetres long')
Assessment Prompt

When your child solves a word problem by drawing a bar model or writing an equation, can they also explain what their answer means in the real-world context — like "that means each child gets 4 sweets"?
