Lent Term Knowledge Organisers
In Lent term, we learn how to use the four operations with decimal numbers and make links between this learning, our previous fractions learning and our future percentages learning. During our percentages unit, we learn how to find percentages of numbers and how to use percentages to find whole amounts.
Later, we learn basic algebra skills before moving onto measurement (converting units, perimeter, area and volume) before finishing with ratio.
All children move through fluency, reasoning and problem solving tasks.
Advent Term Knowledge Organisers
In Advent term, we recap the key aspects of place value and apply this to very large numbers, up to 10, 000, 000. We also apply our previous knowledge of formal methods for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to these large numbers and ensure that we are confident in making exchanges and representing remainders.
During this term, we also learn about common factors and multiples and use this to help us simplify fractions and use the four operations within a fraction context.
