Year 6 Long Term Plan for Maths |
Add and subtract using negative numbers.
|
Perform mental calculations, including with mixed operations and large numbers.
|
Divide numbers up to 4-digits by a 2-digit whole number up to 20 using the efficient written method and interpret remainders as whole number remainders, fractions or by rounding, as appropriate for the context.
|
Solve multi-step problems involving the 4 rules and use estimations to check answers to calculations.
|
Use knowledge of the order of operations to carry out calculations involving the 4 operations.
|
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 (e.g. 1/4 x 1/2) Divide proper fractions by whole numbers (e.g. 1/3 ÷ 2 = 1/6).
|
Multiply 1-digit numbers with up to 2 decimal places by whole numbers.
|
Use written division methods in cases where the answer has up to 2 decimal places.
|
Solve problems which require answers to be rounded to specified degrees of accuracy.
|
Find a percentage of any given number.
|
Solve problems involving the relative sizes of 2 quantities.
|
Solve problems involving unequal sharing and grouping e.g. 3/5 of the class are boys etc.
|
Solve problems involving similar shapes where the scale factor is known or can be found.
|
Solve simple ratio and proportion problems.
|
Reduce a given ratio to its lowest terms.
|
Find pairs of numbers that satisfy number sentences involving two unknowns e.g. what is 2a+3b if a=2 and b=3.
|
Work out all possibilities of combinations of two variables.
|
Recognise that shapes with the same areas can have different perimeters and vice versa.
|
Calculate the area of parallelograms and triangles and be able to use the correct formulae.
|
Calculate the volume of cubes and cuboids using centimetre cubed and cubic metres and extending to other units, such as mm cubed and km cubed.
|
Classify geometric shapes based on their properties and sizes and find unknown angles in any triangles, quadrilaterals and regular polygons.
|
Find unknown angles where they meet at a point and are on a straight line and are vertically opposite.
|
Find missing angles in a parallelogram, rhombus and trapezium by working out diagonally opposite angles.
|
Draw and translate simple shapes on the co-ordinates plane, reflect them in the axes and rotate around a point.
|
Interpret and construct pie charts and use these to solve problems using knowledge of angles, fractions and percentages.
|
Interpret and construct line graphs and use these to solve problems.
