Curriculum Objectives

• Read, write, order and compare numbers up to 10 000 000
• Round any whole number to a required degree of accuracy
• Use estimation to check answers to calculations and determine, in the context of a problem, an appropriate degree of accuracy
• Identify common factors, common multiples and prime numbers
• Multiply multi-digit numbers up to 4 digits by a two-digit whole number using the formal written method of long multiplication
• Use common factors to simplify fractions; use common multiples to express fractions in the same denomination
• Multiply simple pairs of proper fractions, writing the answer in its simplest form [for example, 1/4 × 1/2 = 1/8]
• Solve problems involving the relative sizes of two quantities where missing values can be found by using integer multiplication and division facts
• Express missing number problems algebraically
• Use, read, write and convert between standard units, converting measurements of length, mass, volume and time from a smaller unit of measure to a larger unit, and vice versa, using decimal notation to up to three decimal places
• Convert between miles and kilometres
• Recognise when it is possible to use formulae for the volume of shapes
• Describe simple 3-D shapes
• Find unknown angles in any triangles, quadrilaterals, and regular polygons
• Draw and translate simple shapes on the coordinate plane, and reflect them in the axes
