
Calculate Highest Common Factor and Lowest
Common Multiple for a set of numbers.
To display a number as the product of its prime
factors.
Calculate angles within parallel lines, triangles and
quadrilaterals.
Construct both a line and angle bisector accurately
with the use of pencil, compasses and ruler.
State the nth term rule for a linear/arithmetic
sequence.
Module 1
The literacy skills you will need to develop and include within
the final assessment of your learning are:

Key words: See Literacy focus for each module for top 3 key
words and a full list of key words is provided in the Progress
Assessment book for this learning pathway.
Module 2
Learning objective:
1.1 Add, subtract, multiply and divide integers. (Levels 5 – 6)
Learning objective:
2.1 Identify alternate angles and corresponding angles. (Level 6)
1.2 Use multiples, factors, common factors, highest common
factors, lowest common multiples and primes. (Levels 4 – 6)
2.2 Understand that: the angle sum of a triangle is 180° and of a
quadrilateral is 360°; the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the
sum of the two interior opposite angles. (Levels 5 – 6)
1.3 Use squares, positive and negative square roots, cubes and
cube roots, and index notation for small positive integer powers.
(Levels 5 – 6)
1.4 Find the prime factor decomposition of a number, for example,
8000 = 26 × 53. (Level 6)
Literacy focus: Prime, factor, multiple, Highest Common Factor
(HCF), Lowest Common Multiple (LCM).
Homework task: Weekly Challenge (Level 4 – 5)
