Skills such as confidence with numeracy and rounding benefit our students’ functioning in society. Algebra provides opportunities for students to develop a sense of “awe and wonder” by using letters to represent variables. Students are encouraged to question “why”; they compose proofs and arguments and make assumptions when analysing a problem. For example, students develop algebraic fluency throughout the curriculum. Algebra is a uniquely powerful language that enables students to describe and model situations. Students learn geometrical reasoning through knowledge and application of angle rules and coditions for similarity and congruency. Students develop algebraic fluency throughout the curriculum.
