Curriculum Map
Autumn 1 |
Revise and Improve
Number - Fractions 2 Multiply and divide proper and improper fractions and mixed numbers both positive and negative.
Find a fraction of an amount. Find the whole amount, given a fraction of the amount. Find a fractional increase and decrease. |
Autumn 2 |
Number – Percentages
Solve problems involving percentage change, including:
|
Spring 1 |
Algebra 2 Substitute numerical values into formulae and expressions, including scientific formulae.
Simplify and manipulate algebraic expressions to maintain equivalence by:
Use algebraic methods to solve linear equations in one variable (including all forms that require rearrangement)
Understand and use the concepts and vocabulary of inequalities.
Rearrange formulae to change the subject, where the subject appears once. |
Spring 2 |
Geometry – Circles and Area Convert between cm2 and m2 Derive and apply formulae to calculate and solve problems involving area of circles, composite shapes and trapeziums. Calculate and solve problems involving perimeters of 2-D shapes (including circles). Include examples using algebra, fractions, decimals, etc. |
Summer 1 |
Ratio and Proportion and Rates of Change Change freely between related standard units [for example time, length, area, volume/capacity, mass] Use ratio notation, including reduction to simplest form. Divide a given quantity into two or more parts. Given information about one part, find the whole or other part(s). Understand that a multiplicative relationship between two quantities can be expressed as a ratio or a fraction. Use compound units such as speed, unit pricing and density to solve problems. Solve problems involving direct and inverse proportion, including graphical and algebraic representations. Examples may include:
Draw and interpret pie charts. |
Summer 2 |
Statistics Construct and analyse stem and leaf diagrams, including back to back. For non-grouped data given in the form of a table, find the mean, median, mode and range. Geometry – 3D Shapes Use the properties of faces, surfaces, edges and vertices of cubes, cuboids, prisms, cylinders, pyramids, cones and spheres to solve problems in 3-D. Convert between cm3 and m3 Know and use the fact that 1 litre = 1000cm3 Derive and apply formulae to calculate and solve problems involving volume and surface area of cuboids (including cubes) and other prisms (including cylinders). Construct and interpret plans and elevations of 3-D shapes. |
