Write amounts of money using decimal notation. Round decimals with one decimal place to the nearest whole number. Order and compare numbers with the same number of decimal places up to two decimal places. Find the effect of dividing a one- or two-digit number by 10and 100, identifying the value of the digits in the answer as ones, tenths and hundredths. Addition and Subtraction Partition numbers in different ways (for example,2.3 = 2 + 0.3 and 2.3 = 1 + 1.3). Add and subtract numbers with up to 4 digits and decimals with one decimal place using the formal written methods of columnar addition and subtraction where appropriate. Choose an appropriate strategy to solve a calculation based upon the numbers involved (recall a known fact, calculate mentally, use a jotting, written method). Select a mental strategy appropriate for the numbers involved in the calculation. Estimate and use inverse operations to check answers to a calculation. Addition, Subtraction and Inverse Partition numbers in different ways (for example, 2.3 = 2 + 0.3 and 2.3 = 1 + 1.3). Add and subtract mentally combinations of two and three digit numbers and decimals to one decimal place. Add and subtract numbers with up to 4 digits and decimals with one decimal place using the formal written methods of columnar addition and subtraction where appropriate. Choose an appropriate strategy to solve a calculation based upon the numbers involved (recall a known fact, calculate mentally, use a jotting, written method). Select a mental strategy appropriate for the numbers involved in the calculation. Estimate and use inverse operations to check answers to a calculation. Solve addition and subtraction two-step problems in contexts, deciding which operations and methods to use and why. Properties of 2 D shapes Continue to identify horizontal and vertical lines and pairs of perpendicular and parallel lines. Identify acute and obtuse angles and compare and order angles up to two right angles by size. Identify lines of symmetry in 2-D shapes presented indifferent orientations. Use a variety of sorting diagrams to compare and classify numbers and geometric shapes, including quadrilaterals and triangles, based on their properties and sizes. Measurement (Time)

Lead Subjects: Science Electricity series circuits, switches, conductors, insulators Identify common appliances that run on electricity. Construct a simple series electrical circuit, identifying and naming its basic parts, including cells, wires, bulbs, switches and buzzers. Identify whether or not a lamp will light in a simple series circuit, based on whether or not the lamp is part of a complete loop with a battery. Recognise that a switch opens and closes a circuit and associate this with whether or not a lamp lights in a simple series circuit. Recognise some common conductors and insulators, and associate metals with being good conductors. Know that electricity can be dangerous. Recognise electricity sources can be mains or battery. Know that batteries push electricity round a circuit and can make bulbs, buzzers and motors work. Recognise that faults in circuits can be found by methodically testing connections. Know that drawings, photographs and diagrams can be used to represent circuits (although standard symbols need not be introduced until upper KS2). Pupils Might Work Scientifically By observing patterns, for example, that bulbs get brighter if more cells are added, that metals tend to be conductors of electricity, and that some materials can and some cannot be used to connect across a gap in a circuit.
