Converting
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 three decimal places
solve problems involving the calculation and conversion of units of measure, using decimal notation up to three decimal places where appropriate (appears also in Measuring and Calculating)
convert between miles and kilometres

Mental calculation
Perform mental calculations, including with mixed operations and large numbers
Use their knowledge of the order of operations to carry out calculations involving four operations

Counting

Telling the time

Measuring and calculating
solve problems involving the calculation and conversion of units of measure, using decimal notation up to three decimal places where appropriate (appears also in Converting)
recognise that shapes with the same areas can have different perimeters and vice versa
calculate the area of parallelograms and triangles
calculate, estimate and compare volume of cubes and cuboids using standard units, including cubic centimetres (cm3) and cubic metres (m3), and extending to other units [e.g. mm3 and km3].
recognise when it is possible to use formulae for area and volume of shapes
