understand how to work out prices in Euros; sing a song or recite a poem from
memory on a related topic; listen to a
story and select key words and phrases;
devise and perform a short sketch, in
groups of two or three, using structures
learnt in the unit.
Arithmetic 1:
Write two or three 4-digit decimal numbers vertically, with up to three decimal places, and calculate with more than one tricky column, using addition and subtraction.
Multiply two vulgar fractions where the denominator of one and the numerator of
the other are equal.
Geometry:
Name and draw acute angles, obtuse angles, reflex angles and right angles
Name and calculate vertically opposite angles and supplementary angles
Use a protractor to draw acute angles, obtuse angles and right angles.
Data and Measure:
Appreciate the need for standard units
Know the metric units of mass: g, kg; length: mm, cm, m, km; and volume/
capacity: ml, ℓ, cm3 m3
Know imperial units of measure, e.g. pound, ounce, inch, foot, yard, mile, pint,
gallon
Interpret a reading that lies between two unnumbered divisions on a scale
Convert between metric units, e.g. kg and g to kg
Convert between imperial units, e.g. lb and oz to oz.
Arithmetic 2:
Use >/</≥/≤ with positive whole numbers, e.g. in the form 8 < m < 10
Use a calculator to check if a number is a factor of another number
Distinguish between a factor and a proper factor.
Reasoning:
Solve algebraic equations that have an expression which is the sum of two terms
using algebraic methods, one term being solely ‘x’ and the other term a 1-digit number, e.g. x + 2 = 5
Solve algebraic equations that have an expression which consists of one term
using algebraic methods, a product of ‘x’ and a 1-digit number, e.g. 2x = 6.
