Numeracy

Learning Matrix
Whiria te kaha tūātinitini, whiria te kaha tūāmanomano
This whakatauākī speaks to the many threads – academic, social, emotional, and cultural – that
learners experience when they make mathematical and statistical decisions about situations in their
daily lives.

These threads include the satisfaction learners experience when they use mathematics and statistics to
understand situations; the joy in using mathematical and statistical ideas to improve the lives of others;
and the experience of mathematics and statistics as creative and empowering human endeavours.

Being numerate in Aotearoa New Zealand today involves recognition of tino rangatiratanga, where our
cultural worldviews (e.g. Māori and Pacific people) influence how we weave together the many threads
of mathematics and statistics. This demonstrates that mathematics and statistics are bodies of
knowledge which are created and used by people themselves and their communities.

The Numeracy Learning Matrix weaves together Process Ideas and Content Ideas, as illustrated below:

Learners……
• determine the mathematics and/or statistics needed in a range of situations.
Learners formulate mathematical and/or statistical
• formulate plans to use mathematics/statistics
approaches to solving problems in a range of meaningful
situations. • select appropriate representations of the mathematics or statistics – e.g. graphs, tables, diagrams, equations,
expressions.
• apply mathematical and/or statistical concepts.
Learners use mathematics and statistics to meet the
• use appropriate mathematical/statistical approaches, which may include digital calculations.
numeracy demands of a range of meaningful situations.
• use a degree of precision appropriate to the situation (including estimation).
• consider and explain the reasonableness of solutions, outcomes, and approaches while reflecting on how
these were chosen.
• engage in sense-making to interpret solutions in relation to the situation given, including in different cultural
contexts (see “Unpacking Numeracy”).
• provide evidence-based conclusions.
• use critical judgements in relation to statements based on mathematical and statistical ideas.
o critique these statements
Learners explain the reasonableness of mathematical o explore different approaches to them
and statistical responses to situations. o respect the thinking of others
o respond to the ideas of others
• share mathematical and statistical ideas.
o use mathematical and statistical language, symbols, and representations
o share methods and results
o use their own words to explain ideas
o present ideas concisely and coherently

Content Ideas
1. Fluently and flexibly solve problems that require operations on numbers, understanding the relative size of those numbers, and making sense of the answer in
context.
2. Recognise and work with mathematical relationships.
3. Understand and use the spatial properties and representations of objects.
4. Understand and use systems for location and navigation.
5. Use numbers and units to measure and express attributes of objects and events as quantities, with a degree of precision appropriate to the context.
6. Understand and reason with statistics and data.
7. Use probability to interpret situations that involve elements of chance.
