Students read an extract about gathering water in Sāmoa to find information to fill in a chart. SJ-3-3-1999. Text provided.

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 interpret a back-to-back bar graph about apples picked by comparing and identifying patterns.

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.

This practical task assesses students' understanding of the different features of the vertebrate groups. Students need to identify the larger group that their animal card belongs too, then work with other students with the same group to write down all the features of that group.

Task: Identify the features of three animals, name their classification group, and answer two questions comparing features of the groups. Assessment focus: classification of animals.

Students complete addition and multiplication linear equations by selecting from a range of numbers.

Students are given four pictures, and are asked to draw a circle around the picture that is not a bird, and then give a reason for their choice. Similarly, they circle animals that are not mammals, fish, and molluscs.

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.

In this practical task, students design a tally chart to record the number of different coloured ice-block sticks in an envelope. Students use the sticks as tally marks.
