Teaching Points

• Teaching point 1: Counting in multiples of three can be represented by the three times table. Adjacent multiples of three have a difference of three. Facts from the three times table can be used to solve multiplication and division problems with different structures.
   
• Teaching point 2: Counting in multiples of six can be represented by the six times table. Adjacent multiples of six have a difference of six. Facts from the six times table can be used to solve multiplication and division problems with different structures.
   
• Teaching point 3: Products in the six times table are double the products in the three times table; products in the three times table are half of the products in the six times table.
   
• Teaching point 4: Counting in multiples of nine can be represented by the nine times table. Adjacent multiples of nine have a difference of nine. Facts from the nine times table can be used to solve multiplication and division problems with different structures.
   
• Teaching point 5: Products in the nine times table are triple the products in the three times table. Products that are in the three, six and nine times tables share the same factors.
   
• Teaching point 6: Divisibility rules can be used to find out whether a given number is divisible (to give a whole number) by three, six or nine.

. Draw 2-D shapes and make 3-D shapes using modelling materials.

. Recognise 3-D shapes in different orientations and describe them.

. Recognise angles as a property of shape or a description of a turn.

. Identify right angles, recognise that two right angles make a half-turn, three make three quarters of a turn and four a complete turn.

. Identify whether angles are greater than or less than a right angle.

. Identify horizontal and vertical lines and pairs of perpendicular and parallel lines.

• Compare and sequence intervals of time.
• Tell and write the time to five minutes, including quarter past/to the hour and draw the hands on a clock face to show these times.
• Know the number of minutes in an hour and the number of hours in a day
