English:
'Learning vocabulary through reading' has been added to our support material section. This page lists English resources that provide teachers with assessment data on student ability to understand new or unfamiliar words as they read, by using background knowledge, context clues, and word part clues.
All listed resources have been published this year, with the addition of two new English resources. They are: WL2657, Nippers: "awkward"; WL2656, Nippers: "spectators". Both resources are based on a Part 4 School Journal article, "Playing with words". http://arb.nzcer.org.nz/new_english.php
Maths:
One level 4 and six level 3 resources have just been published.
The contexts include:
- deciding whether a graph is suitable to display category data;
- placing decimal numbers in the correct order and positioning them on a number line;
- identifying fractions that are greater than a half;
- identifying fractions that are greater than one;
- showing or explaining how two different fraction numbers can represent the same fraction;
- finding subsequent shapes in several patterns and showing how to work out another shape based further on in the pattern; using given numbers to work out rules. http://arb.nzcer.org.nz/new_maths.php
ALIGNMENT TO THE NEW CURRICULUM
The ARB resources are currently being aligned to the new curriculum.
From the 19th of October, all resources will map to the new curriculum. This means that the classification search pages will use the new strands and objectives of the new curriculum.
If you have any questions about the alignment to the new curriculum, please contact us.
