Maths- Autumn focus
The focus for the autumn half term will be be securing the children’s understanding of Place Value.
Nursery
In nursery, the children will be learning to recognise and count numbers up to 5. To support them, they will be using Numicon and natural objects around the classroom and the outdoor space.
Reception
The children in reception will be using the Mastering Number programme to recognise and count numbers up to 10, and subitise numbers up to 5. They will be finding one more and one less up to 10. .
Year 1
Year 1 will be working on fluently recalling the number bonds to 10, partitioning, reading and writing numbers up to 20 and counting forwards and backwards within 50. They will be laying the foundations for multiplication by practising doubling numbers up to 20, using Numicon and dienes to help them. They will be working on finding numbers that are fewer, more and same, and using maths vocabulary such as greater than, less than and equal to.
Year 2
The children in Year 2 will be reading and writing numbers up to 100 and recognising the place value and partitioning 2-digit numbers. They will be finding odd and even numbers, and exploring numbers that are greater than, less then and equal to each other.
Year 3
Year 3 will be learning to read and write numerals in numbers and words. They will explore addition and subtraction this half term and multiplication and division. Pupils will be able to multiply and divide and use different representations to understand the structure.
Year 4
Year 4 will be focused on multiplications and division this term. They will begin to divide three-digit numbers by one-digit numbers and also solving problems involving multiplication and division. They will be undertaking lots of practice on Timetables Rockstars.
Year 5
Year 5 have will be exploring numbers up to 1 000 000 and learning how to read and write these numbers. They will be applying their mathematical knowledge to real life contexts. They will also be focusing on deepening their understanding of their multiplication tables knowledge in order to support them when completing multiplication with larger numbers and fraction problems.
Year 6
Year 6 will be focusing upon their place value of decimals this term, understanding their position within a number sequence. The will also be focusing on using their multiplication facts to multiply and divide fractions, develop their knowledge of square and cube numbers, and understand ratio.
