Learning goals

  • We are learning to use a range of strategies to solve addition, subtraction, multiplication and division where there is no remainder.
  • We are learning to solve practical problems involving addition and multiplication including money problems, such as budgeting, using multiple strategies.
  • We are learning to use a range of strategies to solve multiplication and division where there is no remainder.
  • We are learning to solve problems involving division using different strategies and express answers as a whole number, decimal or fraction.
  • We are learning to solve problems involving division by a one digit number, including those that result in remainders.
