  1. Developing your child’s mathematical skills Year 5 and 6

  2. Addition • At the end of Year 5, your child should be able to use efficient written methods to add whole numbers and decimals with up to two places • At the end of Year 6, your child should be able to use efficient written methods to add whole numbers and decimals with up to two places in a range of contexts

  3. Methods of addition • An empty number line • Partitioning • Column – most significant digit first least significant digit first carrying

  4. Subtraction • At the end of Year 5, your child should be able to use efficient written methods to subtract whole numbers and decimals with up to two places • At the end of Year 6, your child should be able to use efficient written methods to subtract whole numbers and decimals with up to two places in a range of contexts

  5. Methods of subtraction • Empty number line • Decomposition • Column

  7. Multiplication • At the end of Year 5, your child should be able to refine and use efficient written methods to multiply HTU ×U, TU ×TU, and U.t ×U • At the end of Year 6, your child should be able to use efficient written methods to multiply integers and decimals by a one-digit integer, and to multiply two-digit and three-digit integers by a two-digit integer

  8. Methods of multiplication • Times tables & related facts • Partitioning • Grid Method

  9. Have a go! • times.rtf

  10. Division • At the end of Year 5, your child should be able to refine and use efficient written methods to divide HTU ÷ U, TU ÷ U • At the end of Year 6, your child should be able to use efficient written methods to divide integers and decimals by a one (and two) digit integer

  11. Methods of division • Inverse of times tables and related facts • Partitioning • Short division • Chunking

  12. Have a go! • div.rtf

  13. How to help your child • Develop their mental calculation skills by practising complements to 100, times tables, related division facts • Do a ‘wrong’ calculation – ask them to figure out what has happened • Involve them in ‘real life’ problems e.g. working out the cost of a meal if you are eating out
