Curriculum Objectives

• Count forwards or backwards in steps of powers of 10 for any given number up to 1,000,000
• Read, write, order and compare numbers to at least 1,000,000
• Read Roman numerals to 1,000 (M) and recognise years written in Roman numerals
• Round any number up to 1,000,000 to the nearest 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000 and 100,000
• Interpret negative numbers in context, count forwards and backwards with positive and negative whole numbers, including through zero
• Add and subtract numbers mentally with increasingly large numbers
• Add and subtract whole numbers with more than 4 digits, including using formal written methods (columnar addition and subtraction)
• Know and use the vocabulary of prime numbers, prime factors and composite (non-prime) numbers
• Recognise and use square numbers and cube numbers, and the notation for squared (2) and cubed (3)
• Multiply and divide numbers mentally drawing upon known facts
• Multiply and divide whole numbers and those involving decimals by 10, 100 and 1,000
• Multiply numbers up to 4 digits by a one- or two-digit number using a formal written method, including long multiplication for two-digit numbers
• Recognise mixed numbers and improper fractions and convert from one form to the other and write mathematical statements > 1 as a mixed number [for example, 2/5 + 4/5 = 6/5 = 1 1/5 ]
• Compare and order fractions whose denominators are all multiples of the same number
• Read and write decimal numbers as fractions [for example, 0.71 = 71/100]
• Recognise the per cent symbol (%) and understand that per cent relates to ‘number of parts per hundred’, and write percentages as a fraction with denominator 100, and as a decimal
