This assignment covers unit 1 of the study guide, as well as the Curriculum and
Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) document.
Question 1: Policy matters
Study pages 21 to 29 of the CAPS: Mathematics – Intermediate Phase, which contain the Intermediate
Phase overview for Space and Shape (Geometry) and Measurement, then respond to the following
questions:
1.1 Critically review the progression from Grade 4 to Grade 6 for each of the six topics that fall under
the content area, Space and Shape (Geometry). Write a short paragraph (three sentences) on each
topic that you discuss and motivate whether the progression provides sufficient cognitive and
conceptual challenges at the relevant grade levels. (14)
Answer:
Topic 1:
Shape Recognition and Naming: The progression likely involves introducing students to basic shapes
in Grade 4 and gradually advancing to more complex shapes, possibly including irregular polygons. The
challenge lies in helping students transition from recognizing simple shapes to identifying and
classifying more intricate ones. By Grade 6, students should be equipped to distinguish various
polygons based on sides and angles, demonstrating cognitive growth.
Topic 2:
Lines and Symmetry: The progression should guide students from understanding basic lines and
symmetry in Grade 4 to comprehending different types of symmetry (reflection and rotational) by
Grade 6. The challenge lies in presenting real-world examples that require students to analyse
symmetrical properties and make connections between symmetrical figures and their properties.
