Maths

Maths in the PYP:

The mathematical process skills of problem solving, developing logic and reasoning, and communicating mathematical ideas, are learned and assessed within 5 strands. Students develop skills and knowledge in:

Number – Encode and decode numbers to millions and beyond, identify place value to a minimum of 6 digit numbers and extend the use of our number system to the tenths place and beyond. Understand the relationship between the four operations, for positive and negative integers, fractions and decimals. Consolidate and recall basic facts to create and solve problems using more than one operation.

Measurement – Measure accurately using standard metric units of volume, mass, length and time. Be able to measure area, perimeter and angles.

Shape and Space – Describe, classify and model 2D and 3D shapes and understand words to describe parts of the shapes. Use vocabulary of angle types and special triangles and quadrilaterals.

Data Handling – Design, survey, process data and interpret results using mathematical language. Use bar, circle and line graphs. Understand and use median, mean and mode. Express probability on a scale from 0% to 100%.

Pattern and Function – Identify and describe features of patterns as generalised rules and functions and apply multiplication and division as inverse operations
