Fractions Count up and down in tenths; recognise that tenths arise from dividing an object into 10 equal parts and in dividing one-digit numbers or quantities by 10 Recognise, find and write fractions of a discrete set of objects: unit fractions and non-unit fractions with small denominators Recognise and use fractions as numbers: unit fractions and non-unit fractions with small denominators Recognise and show, using diagrams, equivalent fractions with small denominators Add and subtract fractions with the same denominator within one whole - for example, 5/7+1/7 = 6/7 Compare and order unit fractions, and fractions with the same denominators Solve problems that involve all of the above Measurement Measure, compare, add and subtract: lengths (m/cm/mm); mass (kg/g); volume/capacity (l/ml) Measure the perimeter of simple 2-D shapes Add and subtract amounts of money to give change, using both £ and p in practical contexts Tell and write the time from an analogue clock, including using Roman numerals from I to XII, and 12-hour and 24-hour clocks Estimate and read time with increasing accuracy to the nearest minute; record and compare time in terms of seconds, minutes and hours; use vocabulary such as o’clock, a.m./p.m., morning, afternoon, noon and midnight Know the number of seconds in a minute and the number of days in each month, year and leap year Compare durations of events [for example to calculate the time taken by particular events or tasks] Geometry - Properties of a Shape Draw 2-D shapes and make 3-D shapes using modelling materials; recognise 3-D shapes in different orientations and describe them Recognise angles as a property of shape or a description of a turn Identify right angles, recognise that two right angles make a half-turn, three make three quarters of a turn and four a complete turn; identify whether angles are greater than or less than a right angle Identify horizontal and vertical lines and pairs of perpendicular and parallel lines Statistics Interpret and present data using bar charts, pictograms and tables Solve one-step and two-step questions [for example, ‘How many more?’ and ‘How many fewer?’] using information presented in scaled bar charts and pictograms and tables Science List of Topics: Throughout the year - Our Changing World. Plants and animals The Power of forces – Inertia, momentum, friction, magnetism Amazing bodies – Health, skeleton, muscles. Can you see me? Sight, light, shadows, sun safety. How does your garden grow? Plants – how they live and reproduce. Rock Detectives – Rock types, properties, fossils, soil. Art List of Topics: Georges Seurat – Pointillism Vincent Van Gogh – Post impressionism Barbara Hepworth – Modernism – abstract art Look at architecture at the time Computing List of Topics: We are programmers – Using Scratch to create an animation We are bug fixers – Finding and correcting the bugs in programs We are presenters – Videoing performances We are network engineers– Exploring computer networks, including the internet We are communicators – Communicating safely on the internet We are opinion pollsters – Collecting and analysing data eSafety learning runs throughout all topics Design and Technology List of Topics: Weaving: Moving vehicles Sandwiches Geography List of Topics: Map Skills: UK and European Focus Mountains Local Area and land use History List of Topics: The Roman Empire and its impact on Britain, an extended topic including a ‘Roman Day’ with invited guests Julius Caesar Changes in Britain from the Stone Age to the Iron Age Modern Foreign Languages French will be taught weekly and throughout the year by a specialist language teacher.
