 Numbers and the number system

 
Place value, ordering and rounding
* Understand and use decimal notation and place value; multiply and divide integers and decimals by 10, 100, 1000, and explain the effect.
* Compare and order decimals in different contexts; know that when comparing measurements they must be in the same units.
* Round positive whole numbers to the nearest 10, 100 or 1000 and decimals to the nearest whole number or one decimal place.

Integers, powers and roots
* Understand negative numbers as positions on a number line; order, add and subtract positive and negative integers in context.
* Recognise and use multiples, factors (divisors), common factor, highest common factor and lowest common multiple in simple cases, and primes (less than 100); use simple tests of divisibility.
* Recognise the first few triangular numbers, squares of numbers to at least 12 × 12 and the corresponding roots.

Fractions, decimals, percentages, ratio and proportion
* Use fraction notation to describe parts of shapes and to express a smaller whole number as a fraction of a larger one; simplify fractions by cancelling all common factors and identify equivalent fractions; convert terminating decimals to fractions, e.g. 0.23 = 23/100 ; use a diagram to compare two or more simple fractions.
* Begin to add and subtract simple fractions and those with common denominators; calculate simple fractions of quantities and measurements (whole-number answers); multiply a fraction by an integer.
* Understand percentage as the 'number of parts per 100';recognise the equivalence of percentages, fractions and decimals; calculate simple percentages and use percentages to compare simple proportions.
* Understand the relationship between ratio and proportion; use direct proportion in simple contexts; use ratio notation, reduce a ratio to its simplest form and divide a quantity into two parts in a given ratio; solve simple problems about ratio and proportion using informal strategies.
