2-digit number and ones
2-digit number and tens
two 2-digit numbers
3 one digit numbers
use subtraction in ‘take away’ and ‘find the difference’ problems
recognise and show that addition can be done in any order (commutative) and subtraction cannot
recall multiplication and division
facts for the 2, 5 and 10
multiplication tables including odd
and evens.
use the multiplication (x), division (÷) and equals
(=) signs to read and write mathematical
statements
ensure pupils can recognise and

division, using materials, arrays, repeated
addition, mental methods, and multiplication and
division facts, including problems in context.

to; more than; less than
(fewer); most; least
count, read and write
numbers to 100 in numerals,
count in different multiples
including ones, twos, fives
and tens
count from 0 to and
across 100, forward and
backwards, beginning
with 0 or 1, and from any
given number
given a number, identify
one more and one less
read, interpret and practise writing mathematical statements involving
addition (+), subtraction (-) and equals (=) signs accurately
add and subtract 1-digit and 2-digit numbers to
20 (9 + 9, 18 - 9), including zero
solve word problems involving simple multiplication and division, using concrete objects,
pictorial representations and arrays with the teacher.

Choose and use appropriate standard units to estimate and measure length/height in any
direction (m/cm/mm); mass (kg/g); temperature (°C); volume and capacity (litres/ml) to the
nearest appropriate unit using rulers, scales, thermometers and measuring vessels
Compare and order lengths, mass, volume/capacity and record the results using >, < and = .
recognise and use symbols for pounds (£) and pence (p); recognise coins and notes of
different values; combine amounts to make a particular value and match different
combinations of coins to equal the same amounts of money; add and subtract money of the
same unit

with different denominations of money,
including coins and notes
