Explainreasoning and conclusions, using words, symbols or diagrams asappropriate

I can explainmy reasoning and conclusions, using symbols to represent unknownnumbers

Iam thinking of a number. If you add 3 to my number and thenmultiply the result by 5, the answer is 35. What is my number? Showme how you worked it out.
Nadia is working with whole numbers. She says: 'If you add atwo-digit number to a two-digit number you cannot get a four-digitnumber.' Is she correct? Explain why.

Solvemulti-step problems, and problems involving fractions, decimals andpercentages; choose and use appropriate calculation strategies ateach stage, including calculator use

I can solveproblems involving more than one step

Howdo you know whether you need to add, subtract, multiply or divide?What clues do you look for?
How did you decide what to do first?
Make up a word problem that could be solved using thesecalculations:
2 m - (24.2 cm 5)
(30.35 47.11) 6
2 hours - 45 minutes

Usedecimal notation for tenths, hundredths and thousandths; partition,round and order decimals with up to three places, and position themon the number line

I can usedecimals with up to three places and order them on a numberline
I can rounddecimals to the nearest whole number or the nearesttenth

Thedistance to the park is 5 km when rounded to the nearest kilometre.What is the greatest/least distance it could be? How would you givesomebody instructions to round distances to the nearestkilometre?
What did you look for first when you ordered these numbers? Whichpart of each number did you look at to help you? What do you dowhen numbers have the same digit in the same place?
Can you explain this to me using a number line?
Which numbers did you think were the hardest to put in order?Why?
Tell me a number that lies between 3.12 and 3.17. Which of the twonumbers is it closer to? How do you know?

Useknowledge of place value and multiplication facts to 10 10 toderive related multiplication and division facts involving decimals(e.g. 0.8 7, 4.8 6)

I can use tables facts to work outother facts with decimals

Youknow that 42 6 = 7. What other division and multiplication factscan you derive from this?
Multiply 7 by 0.6.
What number multiplied by 8 equals 4.8?

Calculatementally with integers and decimals: U.t U.t, TU U, TU U, U.t U, U.t U

I can add,subtract, multiply and divide whole numbers and decimals in myhead

Theanswer is 18.6. What is the question?
Look at these calculations with two-digit decimals. Tell me how youcould work them out in your head.
What other method could you use for this mental calculation?

Useefficient written methods to add and subtract integers anddecimals, to multiply and divide integers and decimals by aone-digit integer, and to multiply two-digit and three-digitintegers by a two-digit integer

I can add, subtract, multiply anddivide whole numbers and decimals using efficient writtenmethods

Lookat these long-multiplication calculations. They have mistakes inthem. Tell me what is wrong with each calculation. How should it becorrected?
Make up an example of an addition or subtraction involving decimalsthat you would do in your head and one that you would do on paper.Explain why.

Use acalculator to solve problems involving multi-step calculations

I can use acalculator to solve problems involving more than onestep

My calculator shows:Myquestion was about money. Complete this:
3.5 means 3 and ... pence.
What if my question was about length? Complete this:
3.5 means 3 metres and ... centimetres.
What if my question was about weight? Complete this:
3.5 means 3 kilograms and

Useapproximations, inverse operations and tests of divisibility toestimate and check results

I can estimateand check the result of a calculation

Whatwould be the best approximation to work out 4.4 18.6? Give yourreasons.
Roughly, what answer do you expect to get? How did you arrive atthat estimate? Do you expect your answer to be greater or less thanyour estimate? Why?
This answer is wrong. How can you tell?
Find two different ways to check the accuracy of this answer.
Should the answer be a multiple of 5? How could you check?

            Participatein a whole-class debate using the conventions and language ofdebate
