Essential PSMT support for QCAA Senior Maths! Includes scaffold, assumptions & observations, and evaluation activities with answers.

This comprehensive PSMT support bundle has been designed specifically for QCAA Senior Mathematics subjects. It contains three linked resources that build directly on each other to guide students through the key requirements of the Problem-Solving and Modelling Task (PSMT).

  • Resource 1: PSMT Scaffold
    A structured scaffold to help students plan, organise and write their PSMT responses. Includes prompts aligned with the assessment criteria and guidance for each stage of the process.

  • Resource 2: Assumptions & Observations Activity
    An engaging worksheet where students analyse mock task statements and determine whether they qualify as assumptions or observations. Includes model answers and is fully aligned to Unit 2 criteria.

  • Resource 3: Evaluation Activity
    Directly linked to the assumptions & observations resource, this activity challenges students to evaluate results and justify reasonableness, strengths, and limitations in context. Includes worked answers.

Because these activities use the same mock tasks across both activities, the evaluation resource naturally builds on the assumptions & observations one, giving students a seamless learning sequence.

This bundle saves teachers time while providing students with targeted, syllabus-aligned practice that strengthens their written communication and critical thinking for PSMTs.

Perfect for:

  • Senior Mathematics teachers in Queensland (General Mathematics, Mathematical Methods, Specialist Mathematics)
  • Formative classroom activities
  • Revision before completing or submitting a PSMT
  • Homework or extension practice for evaluation and communication skills

All resources are supplied as editable Word documents with complete answers included.
