PURPOSE OF THE UNIT STANDARD |
People credited with this unit standard are able to:
|
LEARNING ASSUMED TO BE IN PLACE AND RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING |
It is assumed that people starting the learning towards this unit standard can already read and write at ABET Level 1, and are able to work with geometric figures and solids at a formative stage as represented by the unit standard working with numbers, operations with numbers and relationships between numbers at ABET level 1. |
UNIT STANDARD RANGE |
N/A |
Specific Outcomes and Assessment Criteria: |
SPECIFIC OUTCOME 1 |
Recognise, identify, name, compare, sort and visualise two-dimensional shapes and three-dimensional objects in natural and cultural forms and geometric settings. |
OUTCOME RANGE |
Includes cubes, rectangular and triangular prisms, cylinders, pyramids, parallelograms, rhombuses. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 1 |
Two-dimensional shapes and 3-dimensional objects from the environment and from drawings or pictures are correctly recognized, identified, named, compared and sorted according to properties including the number and/or shape of faces; number and /or length of sides. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 2 |
Two-dimensional shapes and three-dimensional objects are investigated and compared by making three-dimensional models from nets that are provided. |
SPECIFIC OUTCOME 2 |
Analyse properties of geometric figures and solids. |
OUTCOME RANGE |
Including triangles, squares and rectangles. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 1 |
Lines of symmetry in 2-dimensional shapes, including those in nature and in cultural art forms are recognized and described correctly. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 2 |
Properties of geometric shapes, and solids are analysed using rotations, reflections and translations. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 3 |
Properties of two-dimensional shapes are used to create tessellations. |
SPECIFIC OUTCOME 3 |
Describe routes and locations on maps using coded grid references and coordinates. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 1 |
Routes are described using everyday words such as left, right, up, down, next to, behind, compass directions, distance and time. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 2 |
Reference points which are clearly discernible are used correctly. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 3 |
Scales of maps are interpreted correctly. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 4 |
Grid references are interpreted correctly. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 5 |
Coordinates are interpreted correctly. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 6 |
Positions on a coded grid are located correctly. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 7 |
Grid paper is used to correctly draw enlargements and reductions of two-dimensional shapes in order to compare their size and shape. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION RANGE |
Triangles and quadrilaterals. |
SPECIFIC OUTCOME 4 |
Solve problems in a range of measurement contexts. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 1 |
Perimeter is investigated and approximated using rulers or measuring tapes. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 2 |
Square grids and tiling are used to investigate and approximate area of polygons in order to develop an understanding of square units. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 3 |
Packing or filling is used to investigate and approximate volume/capacity of 3-dimensional objects in order to develop an understanding of cubic units. |
SPECIFIC OUTCOME 5 |
Apply lines of sight to make decisions about the placement of objects and the effect of movement by the observer and the object on the view. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 1 |
Lines of sight are straight and take into account the layout of the situation. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 2 |
Conclusions are made about the placement of objects that are consistent with information derived from lines of sight and take into account the effect of movement by the observer and the object on the view. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERION 3 |
Conclusions about whether objects can be seen from a given point of view are given which are consistent with information derived from lines of sight. |

PROVIDERS CURRENTLY ACCREDITED TO OFFER THIS UNIT STANDARD: |
This information shows the current accreditations (i.e. those not past their accreditation end dates), and is the most complete record available to SAQA as of today. Some Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionaries have a lag in their recording systems for provider accreditation, in turn leading to a lag in notifying SAQA of all the providers that they have accredited to offer qualifications and unit standards, as well as any extensions to accreditation end dates. The relevant Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionary should be notified if a record appears to be missing from here. |
