Number sense

In mathematics Number Sense refers to understanding of numbers, their relationship and how they are affected by the four basic operations. Number senses is important because it helps to develop useful strategies when counting, measuring or estimating.

Functions

A function related an input to an output. It works like a machine that takes something in (input) and at the end gives us something back (output). F(x) is the traditional way of expressing functions. Each function has three parts the Input, the Relationship and the Output.

Coordinate plane

The plane containing X axis and Y axis is called coordinate plane. Cartesian coordinated can be used to pinpoint where we are on a map or graph. We can mark a point on a graph by how far along and how far up it is, the point (10,6) is 10 units along and 6 units up.

Units of measurement

A quantity used as a standard of measurement; it is how much makes up “1” of the measurement. So, 1 second is a unit of time or the basic unit of length in metric is meter so 1 meter is a unit of length.

Choose the appropriate metric unit of measure

Compare and convert metric units of length

Compare and convert metric units of mass

Time

Time is the ongoing sequence of events taking place. The past, present and future. We can measure time using clocks. Time has different units like second, minutes, hours, days and so on.

Probability and statistics

Probability is the chance of something happening or how likely it is that some event will happen. Probability is a number between 0 (not happening) to 1 (certainly happening). Easiest way to understand probability is to toss a coin. There are two outcomes of tossing a coin namely Heads or Tails.
