This sheet is aimed at those working towards age expected.
Children convert between different units of time including seconds to minutes, minutes to hours, days to weeks, and months to years.
Direct conversions only without mixed units or remainders
e.g., 120 mins = 2 hours.
This is reasoning activity where children are using the knowledge of times table and dividing 1 digit number by 10.
Ask, “When dividing a number by 10, how many equal parts is the number split into?”
They recognise that when using a place value chart, they move all of the digits one place to the right when dividing by 10.
Watch for:
Children may divide by 10 and put the decimal point in front of the number.
Children may move the digits in the wrong direction.
These are year 4 reasoning activities.

Model making, drawing and writing decimal numbers, showing that the decimal point is used to separate whole numbers from decimals.
Children look at a variety of representations of tenths as decimals, up to the value of 1 whole.
This leads to adding the tenths column to a place value chart for children to see how tenths fit with the rest of the number system and to understand the need for the decimal point.
Children may forget to include the decimal point.
If the number of tenths reaches 10, children may call this “zero point ten” and write 0.10 rather than exchanging for 1 one.
Children may confuse the words “tens” and “tenths”.
Questions to help with understaning the topic:
If a whole is divided into 10 equal parts, what is the value of each part?
How can you represent the decimal
How are decimals like fractions? using a model?
How can you convert between tenths as fractions and tenths as decimals?
How is 1/10 like 0.1? How is it different?
The worksheet is aimed at those working at greater depth.
Children convert decimals to mixed numbers. They match and compare decimals to fractions in their simplest form.

Children find 10 % of a number by dividing it by 10.
They find 25% and 75% of the number.
They find amounts that are multiples of 10.
To find 60%, they multiply the answer to 10% by 6.

Children solve problems with three items for example in the ratio 1 : 2 : 3.
They need to work out how much of each is needed.
The worksheet is aimed at those working towards age expected.
Children solve word problems involving subtracting and adding numbers with up to two decimal places; no exchanges.
They solve word problems involving 2-, 3- and 4-times table
and dividing by 10.
The worksheet sheet is aimed at those working towards age expected.
Children calculate the amount of items used from a given cost.
Using 2 objects and prices which are whole numbers.
Children are reminded that a decimal point is used to separate whole numbers from fractions. The are given some examples of fractions and their decimal equivalents.
They change the fractions to decimals and then write them on the number lines.

Children solve multiple step word problems with up to two decimal places; with multiple exchanges.
They solve word problems involving scaling and any multiple included.
These maze activities help children to identify angles on a straight line and half a turn (total 180°).
The first worksheet is aimed at those working towards age expected. Children
work out the unknown angle on a straight line. Includes multiples of 10.
The second worksheet is aimed at those working at age expected. Children
work out the unknown angle on a straight line. Includes multiples of 5 and 10.
The third worksheet is aimed at those working at greater depth. Children
work out the unknown angle on a straight line. Includes more than two steps addition.
Children should recognise that a half turn is the same as a
straight line, meaning that adjacent angles on a straight line
sum to 180°. Looking at a protractor will reinforce this point,
as children will see that the 0° to 180° line is a straight line.
Once children are secure in the understanding that both a
half turn and a straight line are equal to 180°, they move on
to working out unknown angles on a straight line.
The whole (180°) subtract each part; or add the parts first, then subtract
from the whole.
Ask:
What strategies can you use to work out missing angles?
Do you need to add or subtract to find the unknown angle?
Why?
If there is more than one missing angle but they are equal,
how can division help you to work them out
Answer sheet attached
Children learn how to find percentages of amounts.
To find 10% of something, you need to divide it by 10.
For example, to find 10% of 700, you need to divide 700 by 10.
To find 20%, first find 10% and then multiply by 2.
