First Level Number, Money and Measure - Numeracy and Mathematics

Numeracy and Mathematics

Estimation and Rounding
- I can share ideas with others to develop ways of estimating the answer to a calculation or problem, work out the actual answer, then check my solution by comparing it with the estimate. MNU 1-01a
Number and Number Processes
- I have investigated how whole numbers are constructed, can understand the importance of zero within the system and can use my knowledge to explain the link between a digit, its place and its value. MNU 1-02a
- I can use addition, subtraction, multiplication and division when solving problems, making best use of the mental strategies and written skills I have developed. MNU 1-03a
Fractions, Decimal Fractions and Percentages
Money
- I can use money to pay for items and can work out how much change I should receive. MNU 1-09a
- I have investigated how different combinations of coins and notes can be used to pay for goods or be given in change. MNU 1-09b
Time
Measurement
- I can estimate how long or heavy an object is, or what amount it holds, using everyday things as a guide, then measure or weigh it using appropriate instruments and units. MNU 1-11a
- I can estimate the area of a shape by counting squares or other methods. MNU 1-11b
Mathematics – its impact on the world, past, present and future
- I have discussed the important part that numbers play in the world and explored a variety of systems that have been used by civilisations throughout history to record numbers. MTH 1-12a
Patterns and Relationships
- I can continue and devise more involved repeating patterns or designs, using a variety of media. MTH 1-13a
- Through exploring number patterns, I can recognise and continue simple number sequences and can explain the rule I have applied. MTH 1-13b
Expressions and Equations
- I can compare, describe and show number relationships, using appropriate vocabulary and the symbols for equals, not equal to, less than and greater than. MTH1-15a
- When a picture or symbol is used to replace a number in a number statement, I can find its value using my knowledge of number facts and explain my thinking to others. MTH 1-15b
