• Solve one-step and two-step problems involving whole numbers and decimals and all four operations, choosing and using appropriate calculation strategies, including calculator use

• Use knowledge of rounding, place value, number facts and inverse operations to estimate and check calculations

• Use efficient written methods to add and subtract whole numbers and decimals with up to two places

• Use understanding of place value to multiply and divide whole numbers and decimals by 10, 100 or 1000

• Refine and use efficient written methods to multiply and divide HTU × U, TU × TU, U.t × U and HTU ÷ U

• Use a calculator to solve problems, including those involving decimals or fractions (e.g. to find of 150 g); interpret the display correctly in the context of measurement

• Read and plot coordinates in the first quadrant; recognise parallel and perpendicular lines in grids and shapes; use a set-square and ruler to draw shapes with perpendicular or parallel sides

• Complete patterns with up to two lines of symmetry; draw the position of a shape after a reflection or translation

• Estimate, draw and measure acute and obtuse angles using an angle measurer or protractor to a suitable degree of accuracy; calculate angles in a straight line

• Read, choose, use and record standard metric units to estimate and measure length, weight and capacity to a suitable degree of accuracy (e.g. the nearest centimetre); convert larger to smaller units using decimals to one place (e.g. change 2.6kg to 2600g)

• Interpret a reading that lies between two unnumbered divisions on a scale

• Draw and measure lines to the nearest millimetre; measure and calculate the perimeter of regular and irregular polygons; use the formula for the area of a rectangle to calculate the rectangle's area

• Read timetables and time using 24-hour clock notation; use a calendar to calculate time intervals
