The document outlines the coverage of mathematics topics in the South African curriculum from Grades 2 through 9. It lists the key topics covered in each grade, including:
- Identification and properties of basic shapes
- Numbers and operations with whole numbers, fractions, decimals, exponents, etc.
- Measurement, perimeter, area, volume
- Basic statistics, probability, and problem solving
Higher grades introduce more advanced math concepts such as algebra, functions, geometry, and trigonometry.
