During this term we will focus on the following aspects of mathematics:

Number: Place value

• Reading, writing, ordering and comparing numbers up to 10 000 000 and determining the value of each digit.
• Rounding any whole number to a required degree of accuracy.
• Using negative numbers in context, and calculating intervals across zero.
• Solving number and practical problems that involve all of the above.

Number: Addion, Subtraction, Multiplication and Division

• Solving addition and subtraction multi step problems in contexts, deciding which operations and methods to use and why.
• Multiplying multi-digit number up to 4 digits by a 2 digit number using the formal written method of long multiplication.
• Dividing numbers up to 4 digits by a 2 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.
• Dividing numbers up to 4 digits by a 2 digit number using the formal written method of short division, interpreting remainders according to context.
• Performing mental calculations, including with mixed operations and large numbers.
• Identifying common factors, common multiples and prime numbers.
• Using their knowledge of the order of operations to carry out calculations involving the four operations.
• Solving problems involving addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

Fractions

• Using common factors to simplify fractions; using common multiples to express fractions in the same denomination.
• Comparing and ordering fractions, including fractions > 1
• Generating and describing linear number sequences (with fractions)
• Adding and subtracting fractions with different denominations and mixed numbers, using the concept of equivalent fractions.
• Multiplying simple pairs of proper fractions, writing the answer in its simplest form.]
• Dividing proper fractions by whole numbers.
• Associating a fraction with division and calculate decimal fraction equivalents.
• Recalling and using equivalences between simple fractions, decimals and percentages, including in different contexts.

Geometry: Position and Direction

• Describe positions on the full coordinate grid (all four quadrants).
• Draw and translate simple shapes on the coordinate plane, and reflect them in the axes.
