Estimation and rounding
I can share ideas with others to develop ways of estimating the answer to a calculation or problem, work out the actual answer, then check my solution by comparing it with the estimate. MNU 1-01a
Number and number processes
I have investigated how whole numbers are constructed, can understand the importance of zero within the system and can use my knowledge to explain the link between a digit, its place and its value. MNU 1-02a
Number and number processes
I can use addition, subtraction, multiplication and division when solving problems, making best use of the mental strategies and written skills I have developed. MNU 1-03a
Fractions, decimal fractions and percentages
Having explored fractions by taking part in practical activities, I can show my understanding of:
how a single item can be shared equally
the notation and vocabulary associated with fractions
where simple fractions lie on the number line
MNU 1-07a
Fractions, decimal fractions and percentages
Through exploring how groups of items can be shared equally, I can find a fraction of an amount by applying my knowledge of division. MNU 1-07b
Fractions, decimal fractions and percentages
Through taking part in practical activities including use of pictorial representations, I can demonstrate my understanding of simple fractions which are equivalent. MTH 1-07c
Money
I can use money to pay for items and can work out how much change I should receive. MNU 1-09a
Money
I have investigated how different combinations of coins and notes can be used to pay for goods or be given in change. MNU 1-09b
Time
I can tell the time using 12 hour clocks, realising there is a link with 24 hour notation, explain how it impacts on my daily routine and ensure that I am organised and ready for events throughout my day. MNU 1-10a
Time
I can use a calendar to plan and be organised for key events for myself and my class throughout the year. MNU 1-10b
Time
I have begun to develop a sense of how long tasks take by measuring the time taken to complete a range of activities using a variety of timers. MNU 1-10c
Measurement
I can estimate how long or heavy an object is, or what amount it holds, using everyday things as a guide, then measure or weigh it using appropriate instruments and units. MNU 1-11a
Measurement
I can estimate the area of a shape by counting squares or other methods. MNU 1-11b
Mathematics - its impact on the world, past, present and future
I have discussed the important part that numbers play in the world and explored a variety of systems that have been used by civilisations throughout history to record numbers. MTH 1-12a
Patterns and relationships
I can continue and devise more involved repeating patterns or designs, using a variety of media. MTH 1-13a
Patterns and relationships
Through exploring number patterns, I can recognise and continue simple number sequences and can explain the rule I have applied. MTH 1-13b
Expressions and equations
I can compare, describe and show number relationships, using appropriate vocabulary and the symbols for equals, not equal to, less than and greater than. MTH 1-15a
Expressions and equations
When a picture or symbol is used to replace a number in a number statement, I can find its value using my knowledge of number facts and explain my thinking to others. MTH 1-15b
