AN N2/E3.3

Read, write and understand decimals up to two decimal places in practical contexts (such as: common measures to one decimal place, e.g. 1.5m; money in decimal notation, e.g. £2.37) (a) Understand that the decimal point separates pounds and pence, or m and cm (b) Understand the use of zero as a place holder, e.g. £1.05 is £1 and 5p (c) Understand the use of a leading zero, e.g. 35p = £0.35; 0.5 m = 50 cm (d) Recognise .5 as a half, e.g. 2.5 m as 21/2 m (e) Understand how decimals are spoken, e.g. 3.14 is said as three point one four and not three point fourteen
