This Content Descriptor from Year 4 Mathematics provides the specific knowledge and skills students should learn. Use it to plan lessons, create learning sequences, and design assessments that align with the Australian Curriculum v9.

Elaborations

• 1 identifying even numbers and explaining why all numbers that end in the digits 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 are even and that numbers ending in 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 are odd
• 2 explaining why some materials can be shared evenly between \(2\) people without leaving a remainder and some cannot
• 3 explaining the patterns involved in adding, subtracting and multiplying odd and even numbers; for example, even + even = even, odd + even = odd, odd + odd = even and using this to decide whether answers to addition, subtraction and multiplication calculations are correct or not
• 4 following an algorithm consisting of a flow chart with a series of instructions and decisions to determine whether a number is even or odd; using the algorithm to identify which elements of a set of numbers are divisible by \(2\)
