Up until October half term, Year 5/6 will be focusing on the four operations in Maths. The children will need to carry on with one double sided sheet a day from the last one they completed in school. 

Year 5:

I can add and subtract numbers mentally with increasingly large numbers.

I can multiply and divide numbers mentally drawing upon known facts.

I can identify multiples and factors, including finding all factor pairs of a number, and common factors of two numbers.

I can add and subtract whole numbers with more than 4 digits, including using formal written methods (columnar addition and subtraction).

I can use rounding to check answers to calculations and determine, in the context of a problem, levels of accuracy.

I can solve addition and subtraction multi-step problems in contexts, deciding which operations and methods to use and why.

I can multiply and divide whole numbers and those involving decimals by 10, 100 and 1000.

I can multiply numbers up to 4 digits by a one- or two-digit number using a formal written method, including long multiplication for two-digit numbers.

I can divide numbers up to 4 digits by a one-digit number using the formal written method of short division and interpret remainders appropriately for the context.

I can recognise and use square numbers and cube numbers, and the notation for squared (2) and cubed (3).

I can solve problems involving multiplication and division including using their knowledge of factors and multiples, squares and cubes.        

Year 6:

I can perform mental calculations, including with mixed operations and large numbers

I can identify common factors, common multiples and prime numbers

I can use their knowledge of the order of operations to carry out calculations involving the 4 operations

I can solve addition and subtraction multi-step problems in contexts, deciding which operations and methods to use and why

I can multiply multi-digit numbers up to 4 digits by a two-digit whole number using the formal written method of long multiplication

I can divide numbers up to 4 digits by a two-digit whole number using the formal written method of long division, and interpret remainders as whole number remainders, fractions, or by rounding, as appropriate for the context

I can divide numbers up to 4 digits by a two-digit number using the formal written method of short division where appropriate, interpreting remainders according to the context

I can solve problems involving addition, subtraction, multiplication and division

I use estimation to check answers to calculations and determine, in the context of a problem, an appropriate degree of accuracy

Our reading focus this unit is predicting what might happen next in the text, using details from the text.  

Use the questions below with any book.

• Can you think of another story, which has a similar theme; e.g. good over evil; weak over strong; wise over foolish? Do you think this story will go the same way?
• Do you know of another story which deals with the same issues; e.g. social; moral; cultural? Could this happen in this story?
• Which other author handles time in this way; e.g. flashbacks; dreams?
• Which stories have openings like this? Do you think this story will develop in the same way?
• Why did the author choose this setting? Will that influence how the story develops?
• How is character X like someone you know? Do you think they will react in the same way?

Year 5:
