Number: Fractions and Decimals
Nat Curriculum Objective / Use common factors to simplify fractions; use common multiples to express fractions
in the same denomination / Compare and order fractions, including fractions > 1 / Add and subtract fractions with different denominators and mixed numbers, using the
concept of equivalent fractions / Multiply simple pairs of proper fractions, writing the answer in its simplest form
[forexample, ¼ × ½ = 1/8] / Divide proper fractions by whole numbers
[forexample,1/3÷ 2 = 1/6] / Associate a fraction with division and calculate decimal fraction equivalents
[for example, 0.375] for a simple fraction
[for example,3/8] / Identify the value of each digit in numbers given to 3 decimal places and multiply
and divide numbers by 10, 100 and 1000
givinganswers up to 3 decimal places / Multiply one-digit numbers with up to two decimal places by whole numbers / Use written division methods in cases where the answer has up to two decimal
places / Solve problems which require answers to be rounded to specified degrees of
accuracy / Recall and use
equivalences between simple fractions, decimals and percentages,
including in different contexts

Measurement
Nat Curriculum Objective / Solve problems involving the calculation and conversion of units of measure, using
decimal notation up to three decimal places where appropriate / Use, read, write and convert between standard units, converting measurements of
length, mass, volume and time from a smaller unit of measure to a larger unit, and vice versa, using decimal notationto up to three decimal places / Convert between miles and kilometres / Recognise that shapes with the same areas can have different perimeters and vice
versa / Recognise when
it is possible
to use formulae for area and volume of shapes / Calculate the area of parallelograms and triangles / Calculate, estimate and compare volume of cubes and cuboids using standard units, including cubic
