N1/L1.1 Read, write, order and compare numbers, including large numbers (a) understand that the position of a digit signifies its value (b) know what each digit represents in a number up to 7 digits, inc. use of zero as a place holder (c) understand symbols < and > N1/L1.2 Recognise negative numbers in practical contexts (a) understand the words positive and negative (b) know that 0°C is the temperature which water freezes. (c) understand that a negative temperature is below zero. N1/L1.3 Add, subtract, multiply and divide using efficient written methods N1/L1.4 Multiply and divide whole numbers by 10 and 100. (a) understand place value for whole and to two-decimal places. N1/L1.5 Recall multiplication facts up to 10 x 10 and make connections with division facts. N1/L1.6 Recognise numerical relationships (e.g. multiples and squares) (a) recognise multiples of 2 to 9, up to 100 (b) recognise multiples of 10, 50, 100, 1000 (c) know square numbers to 10 x 10 N1/L1.8 Approximate by rounding (a) understand that numbers can be rounded to different degrees of accuracy e.g. to nearest 10, 100, 1000, million N1/L1.9 Estimate answers to calculations (a) know how to make approximate calculations (b) understand that a knowledge of context enables "guessing" at answers (e.g. it should be about..) or judging if answers are sensible (e.g. that's far too big; doesn't make sense to have an answer less than 1, etc.) * N1/L1.7 is covered in term 2 |
N1/L2.1 Read, write, order and compare positive and negative numbers of any size in a practical context (a) understand that the position of a digit signifies its value (b) know what each digit in a number represents, including the use of zero as a place holder (c) understand the meaning of negative numbers in a practical context, e.g. temperature below zero, loss in trading N1/L2.2 Carry out calculations with numbers of any size using efficient methods. (a) understand words multiple and factor and relate them to multiplication and division facts (b) understand the word prime and know prime numbers to 20 (c) know and use strategies to check answers, e.g. approximate calculations, estimation. N1/L2.4 Evaluate expressions and make substitutions in given formulae in words and symbols to produce results (a) understand that words and symbols in expressions and formulae represent variable quantities (numbers), not things (i.e. 2a + 2b cannot be explained as 2 apples and 2 bananas) (b) understand that the contents of brackets must be worked out first (c) understand that, when there is no operator between a number and a variable, or two variables, multiplication is implied, e.g. 2a = 2 x a; ab = a x b; 2ab = 2 x a x b * N1/L2.3 is covered in term 2 |
|
|
N2/L1.1 Read, write, order and compare common fractions and mixed numbers (a) know common equivalent fractions, e.g. equivalent to a half, quarters, thirds, fifths, tenths (b) understand that in unit fractions, the larger the denominator, the smaller the fraction but that this is not true of non-unit fractions. N2/L1.2 Find parts of whole number quantities or measurements (e.g. 2/3 or 3/4) (a) understand the relationship between unit fractions and division when finding parts N2/L1.3 Recognise equivalencies between common fractions, decimals and %s. E.g. 50% = ½, 0.25 = ¼, and know how you use these to find part of whole number quantities. (a) know common fraction equivalents e.g. half, quarters, fifth, tenths. N2/L1.4 Read, write, order and compare decimals up to three decimal places (a) understand that the position of a digit signifies its value (b) know that the decimal point separates whole numbers from decimal fractions (c) know what each digit represents, including the use of zero as a place holder N2/L1.5 Add, subtract, multiply, divide decimals up to 2 places (a) know and use strategies to check answers e.g. approximate calculations using whole numbers N2/L1.6 Multiply and divide decimals by 10, 100 (a) understand place value (whole nos. and to two-decimal places) N2/L1.7 approximate decimals by rounding to a whole number or two decimal places (a) know what is meant by decimal places N2/L1.11 Use a calculator to calculate efficiently using whole numbers, fractions, decimals and %s (a) know how to change a fraction to a decimal on a calculator (b) understand that %s can be calculated in different ways inc. the % key on a calculator (c) know how to interpret a rounding error such as 6.99999 as 7 (d) know strategies to check answers obtained with a calculator * N2/L1.8, 1.9 and 1.10 (percentages) are covered in term 2 |
