DECOMPOSITION
Students will be able to break down higher-order problems involving interdependent clues and constraints,
using information from:
ƒ Numerical clues involving place value, operations, factors, multiples, and comparisons
ƒ Properties of 2D and 3D shapes (faces, edges, vertices, diagonals, angles
ƒ Multi-step transfers or exchanges (money, quantities, digits, objects) with conditions

ƒ Tables, grids, or charts requiring cross-referencing of multiple data points
ƒ Conditional rules for counting, grouping, sorting, or eliminating possibilities
ƒ Visual representations that encode numerical or logical values

ALGORITHMIC THINKING
Students will be able to follow, analyse, and apply multi-layered rules and procedures to solve complex
problems involving:
ƒ Number sequences formed using combined operations and logical conditions

ƒ Movement on grids involving direction, distance, turns, and path constraints
ƒ Step-wise changes where values increase/decrease based on rules
ƒ Multi-step instructions involving swaps, shifts, transfers, and rearrangements
ƒ Ordering people, objects, or events using multiple attributes or clues

ƒ Logical flow of steps, identifying necessary vs redundant information
Syllabus for Advanced CT skills

For class 6 to 8, the Computational Thinking (CT) curriculum will build upon the foundational skills developed
in class 3 to 5, introducing more advanced applications and problem-solving tasks. The design of the curriculum
will be closely aligned with the mathematics textbooks for each class, ensuring a seamless integration of CT
concepts into existing topics. The accompanying resource book will parallel the structure of the mathematics
textbook while incorporating targeted CT exercises in every chapter. This approach will allow teachers to
naturally reinforce and expand CT skills as they progress through the mathematics curriculum.
