The topics covered this half term have been:
Foundation Tier
| Basic angles use a protractor to measure angles |
| Basic angles – solving basic angle problems – straight lines and about a point |
| Basic angles – more complex angle problems – quadrilaterals, triangles |
| 3D Shapes – name basic 3D shapes and compare their properties |
| Nets – identify and draw nets of basic 3D shapes |
| Symmetry -understand lines of symmetry and planes of symmetry |
| Congruent and similar shapes – understand the terms congruency and similarity and identify each type of shape. |
| Labelling Circles – be able to identify and label the different parts of a circle |
| Metric units – know and convert between different metric units of length, weight, volume |
| Polygons – name all types of triangles, quadrilaterals and up to 10 sided polygons. Also compare properties. |
| Angles in parallel lines – understand apply to calculations the rules of angles in parallel lines |
Higher Tier
| Volume – Find the volume 3D shapes such as cubes and prisms, pyramids, frustums, spheres and hemispheres |
| Surface Area – Find the volume and surface area of basic 3D shapes such as cubes, pyramids, frustums, spheres and hemispheres and prisms |
| Similarity – use similarity and scale factors to calculate missing sides of shapes. |
| Pythagoras – use Pythagoras theorem to finds missing sides to right angled triangles in 2D and 3D |
