Curriculum Objectives

• 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
• Estimate volume [for example, using 1 cm3 blocks to build cuboids (including cubes)] and capacity [for example, using water]
• 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
• Use negative numbers in context, and calculate intervals across zero
• Solve addition and subtraction multi-step problems in contexts, deciding which operations and methods to use and why
• Multiply multi-digit numbers up to 4 digits by a two-digit whole number using the formal written method of long multiplication
• Use their knowledge of the order of operations to carry out calculations involving the four operations
• Use common factors to simplify fractions; use common multiples to express fractions in the same denomination
