A summary of the content for Block D; calculating, measuring and understanding shape
The text in this diagram identifies the focus of mathematics learning within the block

 

The objectives for the block are listed in the table - the right hand column indicates how the objectives might be addressed in the units

Objectives

Units

  • Solve problems involving counting, adding, subtracting, doubling or halving in the context of numbers, measures or money, for example to 'pay' and 'give change'

  • Count reliably at least 20 objects, recognising that when rearranged the number of objects stays the same; estimate a number of objects that can be checked by counting

tick

 

 

  • Relate addition to counting on; recognise that addition can be done in any order; use practical and informal written methods to support the addition of a one-digit number or a multiple of 10 to a one-digit or two-digit number

  • Understand subtraction as 'take away' and find a 'difference' by counting up; use practical and informal written methods to support the subtraction of a one-digit number from a one-digit or two-digit number and a multiple of 10 from a two-digit number

  • Identify objects that turn about a point (e.g. scissors) or about a line (e.g. a door); recognise and make whole, half and quarter turns

  • Visualise and use everyday language to describe the position of objects and direction and distance when moving them, for example when placing or moving objects on a game board

  • Estimate, measure, weigh and compare objects, choosing and using suitable uniform non-standard or standard units and measuring instruments (e.g. a lever balance, metre stick or measuring jug)
