Curriculum Objectives

• Convert between different units of metric measure (for example, kilometre and metre; centimetre and metre; centimetre and millimetre; gram and kilogram; litre and millilitre)
• Measure and calculate the perimeter of composite rectilinear shapes in centimetres and metres
• Use all four operations to solve problems involving measure [for example, volume] using decimal notation, including scaling
• Distinguish between regular and irregular polygons based on reasoning about equal sides and angles
• Know angles are measured in degrees: estimate and compare acute, obtuse and reflex angles
• Identify, describe and represent the position of a shape following a reflection or translation, using the appropriate language, and know that the shape has not changed
• Complete, read and interpret information in tables, including timetables
• Solve comparison, sum and difference problems using information presented in a line graph
• Read, write, order and compare numbers up to 10 000 000
• Round any whole number to a required degree of accuracy
• Identify common factors, common multiples and prime numbers
• Perform mental calculations, including with mixed operations and large numbers
• Use common factors to simplify fractions; use common multiples to express fractions in the same denomination
• Add and subtract fractions with different denominators and mixed numbers, using the concept of equivalent fractions
• Divide proper fractions by whole numbers [for example, 1/3 ÷ 2 = 1/6 ]
