In addition to tackling a more challenging array of questions, Year 6 students recognise that numbers can be positive or negative, apply the rules for the order of operations, add and subtract decimals in real-life contexts and learn to use a Cartesian plane. Greater ability to think about the practical application of mathematical rules enables students to understand and represent data in more sophisticated ways.
The numbers skills of students in Year 5 should allow them to apply place value in digits of any number and demonstrate a more sophisticated understanding of number patterns and fractions. They are dealing with more challenging multiplication problems, including using the formal algorithm, and calculating amounts of money using percentages. Their appreciation of space and time is becoming more subtle and abstract.
In Year 2, students are developing their reading skills and using a range of strategies to recognise and decode words. They are learning to understand the range of purposes and audiences for spoken and written language and also learning to create their own texts for specific purposes and audiences. They are also learning to reflect on and assess their own writing and that of others.
Students build their analytical skills, gaining greater insight into the choices made by the creators of texts and how these impact readers. The focus on evaluation in the final years of the primary curriculum requires a larger technical vocabulary, greater ability to understand abstract meaning and figurative language, and to master a range of text types. Pre-essaying writing skills are consolidated in preparation for Year 7.
Students learn operations with numbers that include addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. They develop greater multiplication skills by learning times tables. They work with measurements of length and area, volume and capacity, mass and time, identify 2D and 3D space and angles and start graphing statistics in simple graphs. Students are starting to learn the appropriate mathematical terminology to explain their problem-solving strategies.

Here’s what parents and students around Australia are saying about Cluey Learning:
My son has been working with his Tutor for about 6 weeks. We are already starting to see positive results and his confidence has grown. At first he was a bit apprehensive about the sessions and now he looks forward to them. The tutoring compliments what he is learning at school.
We pay for private speech sessions in addition to what our school offer in order for our son to achieve learning objectives with English. He struggled to remain engaged and hates going to these sessions. From our sons very first session with Cluey we noticed a difference in his attitude towards learning and his confidence. I honestly wish we started sooner as the learning style is perfect for our sons learning needs and he actually looks forward to each session. In the first week he was worried about missing his next session with Cluey because we had something else on that day. This is an amazing outcome given the week before he complained about having his other speech session yet with Cluey he's always excited. This has been the best investment in our sons education and I highly recommend.
Ever since I engaged with Cluey about their tutoring, I've been impressed. They were straight back to me after my enquiry & have been nothing but professional & helpful ever since. My son has been struggling with Maths & English & Cluey offered me an option with is working & not taking advantage financially. What impressed the most, is how interested they are in my son as a person, which has built his confidence in learning. I would definitely recommend them to help anyone.
The lessons are very rewarding and full of learning opportunities. The tutor we have is very patient, understanding and most of all engaging. My sons confidence has grown and he is keen for each lesson and has asked to have them more often!
My child has a medical condition and has missed quite a bit of school. By joining Cluey learning he has gained confidence and has been able to fill in the gaps he has missed. He is always very excited to do the lessons and he always reflects back to me what he has learned. His tutor always checks with my son what he has been doing at school so he can extend on this.
My son is lost in the system. He is that good child that they do not see. We started Cluey a few weeks back. I love the flexibility of doing it in our own home. The maths tutor gets it. He gets my son to work through the problems and figures out where he is making mistakes. They work back through the problem to fix it. My son than works on other similar problems that he does not get. Our tutor works with my son on the deficits in his maths knowledge. Having one on one allows my son to work on his individual needs.
