identify and classify prepositions. Use punctuation accurately in
complex sentences.
Text Level:
Read and evaluate letters. Investigate persuasive devices.
Note-making and constructing an argument. |
Number: Order positives and negative numbers, order fractions,
know simple fractions as percentages, and recall multiplication and
division facts up to 10 x 10, partition to multiply by 2, 5 or 10.
Round to nearest 10, 100 or 1000, calculate a temperature rise across
0 degrees Celsius.
Use relationship between multiply and divide, express a quotient as a
fraction or as a decimal when dividing a whole number, extend written
methods to TU x TU.
Relate fractions to decimal forms (including tenths and hundredths),
including percentages.
Shape & Space:
Recognise reflective symmetry in regular polygons, complete
symmetrical patterns, recognise where shapes will be after translation. |
Plants:
Identify conditions for growth. Investigate effect of minerals on
plant growth. Look at photosynthesis and the role of the roots, stem and
leaves in this process.
Habitats:
Identify life processes in familiar animals and plants and the
environments in which they are found. Compare two contrasting habitats
using scientific vocabulary. Possible field study to link with
geography.
Forces:
Look at floating/sinking and parachutes. Represent forces using force
diagrams. Identify movement in terms of forces acting; their size and
direction. |
