Numeracy
Abacus pre –assessments
Use a written method (grid) to
multiply pairs of 2-digit numbers; use
short division to divide 3-digit
numbers by 1-digit numbers,
including those which leave a
remainder
Add decimal numbers with
different numbers of places
using column addition; use
mathematical reasoning to
investigate and solve problems,
and solve subtractions of
decimal numbers with different
numbers of places (2-places)
using counting u
Find unit fractions and non-unit
fractions of 3-digit numbers; use
short multiplication to multiply 3digit numbers by 1-digit numbers;
begin to use short multiplication to
multiply 4-digit numbers by 1-digit
numbers
Calculate and understand the
mean average; construct and
interpret distance/time line
graphs where intermediate
points have meaning, including
conversion line graphs;
understand pie charts are a
way of representing data using
percentages,
Understand what a polygon is; draw polygons using
dotted square and isometric paper; revise terms
obtuse, acute and reflex angles, perpendicular and
parallel sides; recognise quadrilaterals as polygons
and identify their properties; classify quadrilaterals;
draw regular polygons and explore their properties;
revise metric units of weight, capacity and length;
Read and plot coordinates in all four quadrants, draw
and translate simple polygons using coordinates and
find missing coordinates for a vertex on a polygon;
draw and reflect simple polygons in both the x-axis
and y-axis using coordinates;
Place mixed numbers on lines; count up in
fractions using equivalence; convert improper
fractions to mixed numbers and vice versa; write
improper fractions as mixed numbers and vice
versa; multiply proper fractions by whole numbers
Revise using short division to divide 4-digit by 1digit and 2-digit numbers including those which
leave a remainder, and divide the remainder by
the divisor to give a fraction, simplifying where
possible, and make approximations; use long
division to divide 4-digit by 2-digit numbers, and
use a systematic approach to solve problems
Solve subtraction of 4-digit numbers using
written column subtraction (decomposition);
add several numbers using written column
addition; use column to solve problems
describe and continue sequences, generalise to
predict the tenth term, begin to generalise a term in
a sequence using n to stand for the number of the
term in a sequence; describe ratio and use ratio to
solve problems; find fractions and simplify ratios
Abacus assessment.
Problem solving skills.
Science
recognise that light appears to
travel in straight lines
use the idea that light travels in straight lines
to explain that objects are seen because they
give out or reflect light into the eye 
explain that we see things because light
travels from light sources to our eyes or from
light sources to objects and then to our eyes

 use the idea that light travels in straight
lines to explain why shadows have the same
shape as the objects that cast them
