Based on your

interpretation of creating a meaningful mathematics classroom environment,

which of the following teacher actions do you think best supports mathematics

learning?

The teacher hears an incorrect answer and

asks students what they think about the idea.

The learner just does not have the gene for

doing mathematics.

The teacher tells the learner that mathematics

requires a maths gene.

The teacher ignores the incorrect answer.

In Grade 6, the units of measurement for

volume are:

millilitres (ml), litres (l) and metres (m)

millilitres (ml) and litres (l)

millilitres (ml), litres (l) and kilolitres (kl)

millimetres (ml) and litres (l)

In the CAPS document, the difference in the

content progression for Length in Grades 4 to 6 is that in Grade 6:

Conversions should include common fractions

and decimal fractions to 2 decimal places

Conversions include converting between mm,

cm, m and km

Solve problems in contexts involving length

Practical measuring of 2-D shapes and 3-D

objects

Constructivism is

against the notion of viewing:

Schema as the space for accommodating new

information

Interaction as the precondition of learning

Children as ‘blank slates’

Learners as active participants in

mathematics learning

Doing mathematics is

about…

school mathematics is useless.

mathematics problems are meant to be solved as quickly as possible.

mathematics is all symbols and no words.

learners are allowed to engage in investigative processes and where they have the time and space to explore problems.

is the formula for calculating:

Area of a

trapezium

Area of a triangle

Volume of trapezium

In which grade are learners expected to engage in calculations and

problem-solving for time where the time is given in centuries, decades and/or

years?
