REINFORCE SECONDARY-READY NUMERACY WITH AUSTRALIAN CURRICULUM ALIGNMENT

The Final Step Toward Mathematical Mastery in Year 6
The Targeting Maths Homework Year 6 workbook is the culminating resource in the primary series, designed to provide rigorous revision of the Australian Curriculum Version 9.0. As students prepare for the transition to secondary school, this workbook consolidates foundational knowledge and introduces advanced mathematical reasoning through a structured, 32-week program (8 units per term). Each unit is designed to ensure students graduate as confident, accurate, and strategic problem-solvers in four core areas:

• Number & Algebra: Finalising mastery of integers, index notation, and prime factorisation, while refining operations with fractions, decimals, and percentages.
• Statistics & Probability: Deepening the ability to interpret data from secondary sources, calculate mean, median, and mode, and conduct sophisticated probability trials.
• Measurement & Space: Solving complex problems involving the volume of prisms, the properties of angles, and Cartesian coordinates.
• Problem Solving: Encouraging the use of higher-order logic and multi-step strategies to tackle the increased academic demands of the senior primary years.

By establishing a disciplined weekly practise routine, this workbook fosters the independent study habits and mathematical stamina essential for success in Year 7 and beyond.

Key features of the Year 6 workbook include:

• NAPLAN*-Style Questions: Specifically integrated to match each unit's learning, these questions familiarise students with the rigor and format of national testing, reducing anxiety and improving performance.
• Traffic Light Marking System: A sophisticated self-assessment tool that encourages students to take accountability for their own results and visually track their high-school readiness.
• Comprehensive Term Reviews: Every 8-unit block concludes with a formal review test, providing parents and teachers with a reliable diagnostic to ensure all key concepts are mastered before the end of the year.
• Version 9.0 Curriculum Mapping: Full transparency is provided with explicit ACARA curriculum codes and descriptions for every unit, ensuring all work is purposeful and nationally aligned.
• Removable Answer Key: A complete answer guide is located at the back of the book, easily removed to allow for adult-led correction or independent verification of complex problems.

The Targeting Maths series is Australia’s most trusted numeracy authority, providing the ultimate roadmap for Year 6 students to achieve mathematical excellence.
