Basics of Comparison
Initially, students compare physical attributes such as length, weight, and capacity using direct and indirect comparisons. They learn to use appropriate units and tools for these comparisons. By Year 5, students apply their comparison skills in more abstract contexts, such as comparing data sets, probabilities, and mathematical expressions.
Comparative Analysis of Data
Initially, students compare simple data sets using basic graphical representations like bar charts. As they progress, they learn to use more complex data analysis tools like histograms and box plots to perform comparative analysis. By Year 5, students undertake detailed comparative studies using statistical measures and software, interpreting trends and anomalies in data for academic and real-world applications.
Using Comparison in Everyday Decisions
Students start by making simple decisions based on direct comparisons, such as choosing between different food options based on nutritional content or price. As they develop, they use more complex comparative analysis to make informed decisions, such as evaluating products, services, or outcomes based on multiple criteria. By Year 5, students apply decision-making skills in varied contexts, including personal finance, consumer behavior, and environmental impact assessments.
