You choose sensible number strategies that work, use them correctly to get an answer, and explain what you did using the right maths words.
You show connections between different maths ideas and combine different ways of representing the problem, demonstrating that you understand how the concepts link together.
You create models or strategies to investigate the problem in depth, show sophisticated understanding of the maths concepts, and communicate your thinking clearly in both English and te reo Māori where appropriate.
