Maths Unit 1 : Number and Algebra

•All types of Real Numbers’ subsets (Natural, Whole, Integers,
Rational, Irrational, Even, Odd, Prime and Composite numbers)
•Rational and irrational numbers and understanding decimal fractions
as terminating, non terminating, recurring and non-recurring
•Illustrate the position of any Real number on number line
•Negative numbers in different contexts , finding the absolute value
•Significant figures, Find the number of significant figures in any given
number (integer or decimal)
•Round any real number to a required degree of accuracy; significance
(up to 5 significant figures) or decimal places (up to 3 decimal places)
Unit 2: Four Operators
•Properties of real numbers and their subsets with respect to addition,
subtraction, multiplication and division: ( closure property, associative
property , identity properties , inverse properties , commutative
property , distributive property of multiplication over
addition/subtraction , order properties)
•Solve problems that involve approximations
•Multiplication and division of whole numbers by any method
(interpreting remainders) and their word problems
• Order of operations to solve numerical expressions (BODMAS)
including decimal numbers) and also their word problems
•Commutative, associative and distributive laws of the four operations
in real number calculations (to be used in problem solving)
Unit 3: Factors and Multiples
•Word problems of LCM and HCF
•Standard form or scientific notation , Recognize common prefixes in
our daily lives
•Apply order of operations (BODMAS)in standard form
•Know the applications (word problems)of standard form
Unit 4: Square root and Cube-roots
•Squares and cubes of multi-digit numbers and decimal numbers
•Compute square roots and cube roots of perfect squares and perfect
cubes respectively (using prime factorization) of Integers, Fractions
and Decimals and their word problems
Unit 5: Ratio, Rate and Proportions
•Sharing in Ratios
•Direct and inverse proportion , Identify the relationship between two
quantities by looking at the given graph (direct and inverse
proportion),
•Solve word problems involving direct and inverse proportion of two
quantities using: table , equation and graph
•Solve problems involving compound proportion.
Unit 6: Geometry
•All parts of a circle,
•Find the arc length and area of a circle given the central angle
•Calculate the length of any side of a right angled triangle using
Pythagoras Theorem and solve word problems using Pythagoras
•Construct a triangle (using ruler, protractor and compass) when 2
sides and included angle are given (SAS)
•Construct different types of quadrilaterals (square, rectangle,
parallelogram, rhombus, trapezium and kite) - using ruler, protractor
and compass
Unit 7: Rotations
•Know the steps to rotate a figure (Rotational Transformation)
•Locate the center and angle of rotation
Unit 8: Data Handling
•Discrete and continuous data , Difference between grouped and
ungrouped data
•Construction and interpretation of frequency distribution tables for
discrete data only (both grouped and ungrouped) Construction and
interpretation of histograms for both discrete and continuous data
with equal interval range (with overlapping class boundaries) and
histograms for both discrete and continuous data with unequal
interval range (with overlapping class boundaries only) – using 2
methods : heights of rectangles and frequency densities
•Construct and interpret frequency polygons for both discrete and
 continuous data with equal interval range (with overlapping class
boundaries only)
•Justify selection of most appropriate graphs for the given data
•Recall calculating mean of grouped continuous data (by finding mid-
value)
