Students identify significant figures in given numbers, and round numbers to a given number of significant figures.

Students perform calculations using whole numbers and negative numbers.

In this practical task, students interpret information presented in a strip graph, regroup the data, construct a new strip graph, and answer questions about the data.

Each student designs a question and an associated scale to record other students' attitudes to mathematics.

Students construct a calendar to match given criteria and enter three events onto the calendar.

The start of a spatial pattern of triangles is shown and described in a table. Students generate more of the pattern and describe the relationships algebraically.

Students describe algebraic expressions in words.

Students draw top and side views of five different 3-dimensional objects.

For this practical task students collect time-series data on the change in water temperature in a container at regular time intervals. Students are also required to display their results on an appropriate graph.

Students design a qualitative scale for measuring how hard their school work is, then use it to record their opinions throughout the day.

Students find the biggest and smallest numbers from a list of positive and negative numbers. They add, subtract and multiply using these numbers.

Students interpret a histogram showing the number of vehicles travelling at different speeds past a speed camera. Students need to calculate a percentage and the median to complete this task.

Students use substitution into equations to evaluate the number of blocks and total surface areas in shapes of different heights. The stimulus can be used as a challenging task to try and derive the rules from the spatial pattern. This is classified as Patterns and Relationships.

Students write and solve equations for story problems describing practical situations.

Students write a report on a table of data and make recommendations from their report.

Students are required to use trigonometry to calculate the length of one side of a right-angled triangle in three problems based on a ski lift, a toy sail boat and a penguin on an iceberg.

Students use addition and subtraction to calculate the changing balance in a students back account.

Students interpret a back-to-back bar graph comparing and identifying a pattern in the data.

Students study a box-and-whisker graph and answer questions on median, quartile and outliers.

Students use given information to solve a story problem about paper deliveries and identify the correct algebraic equation for the answer. They also write an algebraic equation for a similar story problem.

Students complete a bar graph from details about paua diving and answer questions interpreting the data, including finding an average.

Students complete the total and mean columns in a table of sunshine hours. They then construct a bar graph and make a statement comparing some of the data.

Students predict the probability about the product of two dice and test their prediction by conducting an experiment that estimates the probability.

Students are required to construct a composite bar graph based on Statistics New Zealand Time Use Survey data and are then required to make comparative statements based on gender.

For this practical task students construct a composite strip graph of the nutrient groups found in three different food products.
