Your child can approach and solve a problem in a way that he finds it easy. ( He will know more than one way of solving a problem and can use them to check his results.  division, multiplication, addition, subtraction etc..) 

 

 

He understands place value correctly and multiplies, divides whole numbers by 10 by moving the decimal point rather than doing the sum. ( Good understanding of place value is important to grasp why the decimal is moving)

 

 

He knows the multiplication table up to 10 times 10.  (12 times 12 is better)

He begins to use simple formulae in algebra and words.  ( eg X + 6 = 10; Find x)

 

 

He can use symmetry to reflect shapes on a mirror line.  He can draw simple symmetrical shapes.   

 

 

He can find the perimeter and the area of simple shapes.  (area by counting the squares) 

 

 

He can draw 2D and 3D shapes on a grid paper.
