MEASURES, SHAPE AND SPACE

72-79 Measures

Use and begin to read the vocabulary related to length, mass and capacity. (p.73)
Estimate, measure and compare lengths, masses and capacities, using standard units (m, cm, kg, litre); suggest suitable units and equipment for such measurements. (p.73,75)
Read a simple scale to the nearest labelled division, including using a ruler to draw and measure lines to the nearest centimetre, recording estimates and measurements as '3 and a bit metres long' or 'about 8 centimetres' or 'nearly 3 kilograms heavy'. (p.77)	Interactive measuring scales. Change scale and interval to suite. Very interactive Interactive measuring cylinder. Change scale and interval to suite. Very interactive	Standards Site ‘Measuring Scales' Standards Site ‘Measuring Cylinder'
Use and begin to read the vocabulary related to time.Use units of time and know the relationships between them (second, minute, hour, day, week).Suggest suitable units to estimate or measure time.Order the months of the year.Read the time to the hour, half hour or quarter hour on an analogue clock and a 12-hour digital clock, and understand thenotation 7:30. (p.79)	Level 1: o'clock Level 2: ½ past, ¼ to and past Level 3: 5 minute intervals	BBC Dynamo ‘Clockwise'

80-89 Shape and Space

Use the mathematical names for common 3-D and 2-D shapes, including the pyramid, cylinder, pentagon, hexagon, octagon Sort shapes and describe some of their features, such as the number of sides and corners, symmetry (2-D shapes), or the shapes of faces and number of faces, edges and corners (3-D shapes). (p.81)	Sorting grid using category of number of sides. Interactive version of guess the 2D shape appearing from behind the book. 2D shapes and 2D shapes with rotation	PrimaryResources 'SimpleShapeSort' Primary Resources ‘Shape Reveal'
Make and describe shapes, pictures and patterns using, for example, solid shapes, templates, pinboard and elastic bands, squared paper, a programmable robot... Relate solid shapes to pictures of them. (p.83)
Begin to recognise line symmetry. (p.85)	Using the butterfly back drop, create symmetrical patterns	PrimaryResources 'ShapeCounters'
Use mathematical vocabulary to describe position, direction and movement: for example, describe, place, tick, draw or visualise objects in given positions. (p.87,89)
Recognise whole, half and quarter turns, to the left or right, clockwise or anti-clockwise.Know that a right angle is a measure of a quarter turn, and recognise right angles in squares and rectangles.Give instructions for moving along a route in straight lines and round right-angled corners: for example, to pass through a simple maze (p.87,89)	Using third grid, classify shapes Sorting 2D shapes into three sets classifying through right angles	PrimaryResources 'SimpleShapeSort' From the turquoise box or from: Turquoise Box ‘2D shapes'
