  • Year 4 Maths Key Performance Indicators

    • Counts in multiples of 6, 7, 9, 25 and 1,000
    • Counts backwards through zero to include negative numbers
    • Recognise the place value of each digit in a four-digit number (thousands, hundreds, tens, ones)
    • Orders and compares numbers beyond 1,000
    • Rounds any number to the nearest 10, 100 or 1,000
    • Solves addition and subtraction two-step problems in context, deciding which operations to use and why
    • Add numbers with up to 4 digits using the formal written methods of columnar addition where appropriate
    • Subtract numbers with up to 4 digits using the formal written methods of columnar subtraction where appropriate
    • Recalls multiplication and division facts multiplication tables 12 x 12
    • Use place value, known and derived facts to multiply and divide mentally, including multiplying by 0 and 1; dividing by 1; multiplying together with 3 numbers
    • Multiply two-digit and three-digit numbers by a one-digit number, using formal written layout
    • Divide two-digit and three-digit numbers by a one-digit number, using formal written layout
    • Recognises and shows, using diagrams, families of common equivalent fractions 
    • Counts up and down in hundredths
    • Recognise that hundredths arise when dividing an object by 100 and dividing tenths by 10
    • Recognises and write decimal equivalents of any numbers of tenths or hundredths
    • Recognise and write decimal equivalents to 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4
    • Find the effect of dividing a one or two-digit number by 10 and 100, identifying the value of the digits in the answer as ones, tenths and hundredths
    • Rounds decimals with one decimal place to the nearest whole number
    • Solves simple measure and money problems involving fractions and decimals to two decimal places
    • Converts between different units of measure e.g. kilometre to metre, hour to minute
    • Read, write and convert time between analogue and digital 12 and 24 hour clocks
    • Compare and classifies geometric shapes, including quadrilaterals and triangles, based on their properties and sizes
    • Identify lines of symmetry in 2 dimensional shapes presented in different orientations
    • Plot specified points and draws sides to complete a given polygon
    • Solves comparison, sum and difference problems using information presented in bar charts, pictograms, tables and other graphs
