Phase 3
Curriculum Phase (Years 7–8)

This unit sits in Phase 3 (Years 7–8). The two connections below were checked by hand against this unit's lessons and resources; each statement is reproduced as it is written in the curriculum, not paraphrased. One is a Phase 2 statement, shown because it is the prior learning this unit builds on — its phase is named on the card.

Three further connections previously listed here were removed on review: a Phase 1 (Years 0–3) statement about ordinal numbers, a Phase 4 (Years 9–10) statement about the real-number solutions of x² = a, and a Phase 2 statement about column multiplication. None of the three describes what this unit teaches. This page lists only connections that have been checked; it is not a complete map of the curriculum this unit touches.
