objectives include: Year 6 objectives • solve problems involving the calculation and conversion of
units of measure, using decimal notation up to 3 decimal places where appropriate • use, read, write and convert between standard
units, converting measurements of length, mass, volume and time from a smaller
unit of measure to a larger
unit, and vice versa, using decimal notation to up to 3 decimal places • convert between miles and kilometres • recognise that shapes with the same areas can have different perimeters and vice versa • recognise when it is possible to use formulae for area and volume of shapes • calculate the area of parallelograms and triangles • calculate, estimate and compare volume of cubes and cuboids using standard
units, including cubic centimetres (cm ³) and cubic metres (m ³), and extending to other
units [for example, mm ³ and km ³] • express missing number problems algebraically • find pairs of numbers that satisfy an equation with 2 unknowns • enumerate possibilities of combinations of 2 variables • draw 2 - D shapes using given dimensions and angles • recognise, describe and build
simple 3 - D shapes, including making nets • compare and classify geometric shapes based on their properties and sizes and find unknown angles in any triangles, quadrilaterals, and regular polygons • illustrate and name parts of circles, including radius, diameter and circumference and know that the diameter is twice the radius • recognise angles where they meet at a point, are on a straight line, or are vertically opposite, and find missing angles • describe positions on the full coordinate grid (all 4 quadrants) • draw and translate
simple shapes on the coordinate plane, and reflect them in the axes • interpret and
construct pie charts and line graphs and use these to solve problems • calculate and interpret the mean as an average • read, write, order and compare numbers up to 10,000,000 and determine the value of each digit • round any whole number to a required degree of accuracy and more!
Kelly comments that the evocative potential in his newer work,
constructed from discrete marks that cross the picture plane, interests him: «That, to me, is the point: the way in which basic, universal configurations of
simple units can end up
constructing, in a viewers mind, an incredible range of things - a range that is, ultimately, limitless.»
