Curriculum Objectives

• Solve problems involving converting between units of time
• 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
• Round any whole number to a required degree of accuracy
• Use negative numbers in context, and calculate intervals across zero
• Divide numbers up to 4 digits by a two-digit whole number using the formal written method of long division, and interpret remainders as whole number remainders, fractions, or by rounding, as appropriate for the context
• Add and subtract fractions with different denominators and mixed numbers, using the concept of equivalent fractions
• Multiply simple pairs of proper fractions, writing the answer in its simplest form [for example, 1/4 × 1/2 = 1/8]
• Recall and use equivalences between simple fractions, decimals and percentages, including in different contexts
• Solve problems involving similar shapes where the scale factor is known or can be found
• Use simple formulae
• Enumerate possibilities of combinations of two variables
• 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
• Calculate the area of parallelograms and triangles
• Compare and classify geometric shapes based on their properties and sizes
• Illustrate and name parts of circles, including radius, diameter and circumference and know that the diameter is twice the radius
• Draw and translate simple shapes on the coordinate plane, and reflect them in the axes
• Interpret and construct pie charts and line graphs and use these to solve problems
• Calculate and interpret the mean as an average
