CURRICULUM CONNECTION

The Year 3 workbook supports selected learning within Australian Curriculum v9.0 content description AC9M3N02, with number lines used as visual support.

It focuses on halves, thirds, quarters and fifths. Dedicated tenths practice is not included, so the workbook does not provide complete coverage of AC9M3N02.
