Curriculum Objectives

• Interpret and present discrete and continuous data using appropriate graphical methods, including bar charts and time graphs
• Solve comparison, sum and difference problems using information presented in bar charts, pictograms, tables and other graphs
• Count forwards or backwards in steps of powers of 10 for any given number up to 1,000,000
• Round any number up to 1,000,000 to the nearest 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000 and 100,000
• Add and subtract whole numbers with more than 4 digits, including using formal written methods (columnar addition and subtraction)
• 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 and use thousandths and relate them to tenths, hundredths and decimal equivalents
• 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
• Solve problems involving converting between units of time
• Convert between different units of metric measure (for example, kilometre and metre; centimetre and metre; centimetre and millimetre; gram and kilogram; litre and millilitre)
• Calculate and compare the area of rectangles (including squares), and including using standard units, square centimetres (cm2) and square metres (m2) and estimate the area of irregular shapes
• Distinguish between regular and irregular polygons based on reasoning about equal sides and angles
• Identify 3-D shapes, including cubes and other cuboids, from 2-D representations
• Know angles are measured in degrees: estimate and compare acute, obtuse and reflex angles
