A year 4 mathematician
Number, place value, approximation and estimation/rounding
I can count in multiples of 6, 7, 9, 25 and 1,000.
I can order and compare numbers beyond 1,000.
I can find 1,000 more or less than a given number.
I recognise the place value of each digit in a 4-digit number.
I can read Roman numerals to 100 and know that over time the numeral system
changed to include the concept of zero and place value.
I can identify, represent and estimate numbers using different representations.
I can round any number to the nearest 10, 100 or 1,000.
I can count backwards through zero to include negative numbers.
I can solve number and practical problems with the above (involving increasingly
large numbers).
Calculations
I can add and subtract numbers with up to 4-digits using the formal written methods
of columnar addition and subtraction.
I can estimate and use inverse operations to check answers in a calculation.
I can solve addition and subtraction 2-step problems in contexts, deciding which
operations and methods to use and why.
I an recall multiplication and division facts up to 12x12.
I can use place value, known and derived facts to multiply and divide mentally,
including: multiplying by 0 and 1; dividing by 1; multiplying together three
numbers.
I recognise and use factor pairs and commutativity in mental calculations.
I can multiply 2-digit numbers by a 1-digit number using formal written layout.
I can solve problems involving multiplying and adding, including using the distributive
law to multiply 2-digit numbers by 1-digit, integer scaling problems and harder
correspondence problems such as n objects are connected to m objects.
Fractions, decimals and percentages
I an count up and down in hundredths.
I recognise that hundredths arise when dividing an object by a hundred and
dividing tenths by ten.
I recognise and show using diagrams, families of common equivalent fractions.
I can add and subtract factions within the same denominator.
I recognise and write decimal equivalents to 1/4, 1/2 and .
I recognise and write decimal equivalents of any number of tenths or hundredths.
I can round decimals with one decimal place to the nearest whole number.
I can compare numbers with the same number of decimal places up to 2 decimal
places.
I can find the effect of dividing a 1-digit or 2-digit number by 10 and 100, identifying
the value of the digits in the answer as ones, tenths and hundredths.
I can solve problems involving increasingly harder factions and fractions to divide
quantities, including non-unit fractions where the answer is a whole number.
I can solve simple measure and money problems involving fractions and decimals to
2 decimal places.
Measurement
I can compare different measures, including money in and p.

I can calculate different measures. Including money in and p.
I can read, write and convert time between analogue and digital 12 hour
clocks.
I can read, write and convert time between analogue and digital 24 hour
clocks.
I can solve problems involving converting from hours to minutes; minutes
to seconds; years to months; weeks to days.

I can measure and calculate the perimeter of a rectilinear figure in cm
and m.
I can find the area of rectilinear shapes by counting squares.
I can calculate different measures
Geometry properties of shapes
I can compare and classify geometric shapes, including quadrilateral and
triangles based on their properties and sizes.
I can identify lines of symmetry in 2D shapes presented in different
orientations.
I can complete a simple symmetric figure with respect to a specific line of
symmetry,
I can identify acute and obtuse angles and compare and order angles
up to two right angles by size.

I can describe movements between positions as translations of a given
unit to the left/right and up/down.
I can describe positions on a 2D grid as coordinates in the first quadrant.
I can plot specified points and draw sides to complete a given polygon.

I can interpret and present discrete and continuous data using
appropriate graphical methods, including bar charts and time graphs.
I can solve comparison, sum and difference problems using information
presented in bar charts, pictograms, tables and other graphs.
