KS1 & KS2 maths curriculum

This unit gives pupils the opportunity to combine multiplication and then division with addition and subtraction. They will explore the different results if operations are done in different orders and realise that, without a context, a set order of operations is needed. They will revisit the distributive las as it applies to multiplications with a common factor and divisions with a common divisor. This will lead on to work on arithmetic procedures with integers and decimals in Year 7.
