Series overview

Oxford Maths is a comprehensive and engaging mathematics program for F–6 that ensures every student can access the curriculum at their own point of need. It offers multiple pathways for students of varying ability, and supports the 'gradual release of responsibility' approach, where initial scaffolding is gradually reduced to allow students to become confident and independent mathematicians.

Included activities

The program includes a wealth of hands-on activities, small-group and whole-class tasks, practice exercises and open-ended problem-solving opportunities. It helps students make connections with mathematics in the real world and encourages higher-order thinking and reasoning.

Curriculum alignment

Oxford Maths is fully aligned with the Australian and Victorian Curricula and the NSW Syllabus.

New in 2020 for Years 3–6

Assess

Years 3–6 Student Dashboards feature a tailored suite of assessment resources for each topic, including online pre-tests with adaptive functionality, practice quizzes and post-tests.

Track

Markbook provides an easy-to-access snapshot of class and student progress, enabling teachers to view test performance, highlight areas of success and identify opportunities for additional support.

Report

Compare students’ results to class averages with new enhanced reporting features including HTML or PDF student progress reports containing all test results, quiz results and comments.

Student Books for F–6

  • Clear and simple layouts maximise student learning and engagement.
  • Layouts are based on a developmental approach that incorporates initial scaffolding (Guided section), which is gradually reduced to allow students to become confident and independent mathematicians (Independent & Extended sections).
  • Student activity pages cover the Mathematics content strands of Number and Algebra, Measurement and Geometry, and Statistics and Probability.
  • Topics follow a scope and sequence that supports the sequential acquisition of mathematical skills, concepts and knowledge.


Assessment Books for F–6

  • Short pre-and-post tests are provided for each topic or group of like concepts.
  • Help teachers identify students’ points of need and to measure growth.
  • Results from the pre-tests support teachers to find the correct pathway for each student, whether they are struggling, at level, or extension students.
  • Results from the post-tests allow teachers to track and review student learning.
  • Simple grading system allows educators to assign a grade to students for reporting.

Student Dashboards

Available for Years F–6 via Oxford Owl and FREE to adopters of Oxford Maths Value Packs, the Student Dashboards deliver a tailored suite of resources for each topic based on students’ ability groups (extension, at standard, support), ensuring that every student can experience success at their level.

Resources for Student Dashboards include:

  • a digital version of the Student Book (with notetaking and bookmarking functionality)
  • Oxford Dictionary look-up feature
  • online pre-tests with adaptive functionality
  • practice quizzes
  • online post-tests.

Pre-tests

Each topic in the Oxford Maths Student Dashboards begin with an adaptive pre-test.

Pre-tests are made up of multiple choice questions designed to identify each student’s level of understanding and automatically allocate them to one of three ability groups: support, at standard or extension.

Upon completion of a pre-test, students are presented with a selection of ability-appropriate learning resources and assessments.

Post-tests

Post-tests allow educators to observe student progress, confirm the effectiveness of the teaching sequence and identify areas of further need for the topic or concept.

They provide a quick and easy way of assessing a student’s achievement level in a particular topic.

Further information on post-test grading is provided on the Teacher Dashboards.

Teacher Dashboards
