  • Solve one-step and two-step problems involving numbers, money or measures, including time; choose and carry out appropriate calculations, using calculator methods where appropriate

 


 


tick

  • Partition, round and order four-digit whole numbers; use positive and negative numbers in context and position them on a number line; state inequalities using the symbols < and > (e.g. -3 > -5, -1 < +1)

tick

  • Recognise and continue number sequences formed by counting on or back in steps of constant size

  • Use knowledge of addition and subtraction facts and place value to derive sums and differences of pairs of multiples of 10, 100 or 1000

tick

 


 


  • Add or subtract mentally pairs of two-digit whole numbers (e.g. 47 plus 58, 91 minus 35)

  • Refine and use efficient written methods to add and subtract two-digit and three-digit whole numbers and £.p

  • Derive and recall multiplication facts up to 10 multiplied by 10, the corresponding division facts and multiples of numbers to 10 up to the tenth multiple

tick

tick

  • Multiply and divide numbers to 1000 by 10 and then 100 (whole-number answers), understanding the effect; relate to scaling up or down

tick

  • Identify the doubles of two-digit numbers; use these to calculate doubles of multiples of 10 and 100 and derive the corresponding halves

tick

 


 


  • Develop and use written methods to record, support and explain multiplication and division of two-digit numbers by a one-digit number, including division with remainders (e.g. 15 multiplied by 9, 98 divided by 6)

 


tick

tick

  • Use a calculator to carry out one-step and two-step calculations involving all four operations; recognise negative numbers in the display, correct mistaken entries and interpret the display correctly in the context of money
