Year 1

• Count to and across 100, forwards and backwards, beginning with 0 or 1, or from any given number.
• Count, read and write numbers to 100 in numerals; count in multiples of twos, fives and tens.
• Given a number, identify one more and one less.
• Identify and represent numbers using objects and pictorial representations including the number line, and use the language of: equal to, more than, less than (fewer), most, least.
• Read and write numbers from 1 to 20 in numerals and words.

Year 2

• Count in steps of 2, 3, and 5 from 0, and in tens from any number, forward and backward.
• Recognise the place value of each digit in a two-digit number (tens, ones).
• Identify, represent and estimate numbers using different representations, including the number line.
• Compare and order numbers from 0 up to 100; use and = signs.
• Read and write numbers to at least 100 in numerals and in words.
• Use place value and number facts to solve problems.

Year 3

• Count from 0 in multiples of 4, 8, 50 and 100; find 10 or 100 more or less than a given number.
• Recognise the place value of each digit in a three-digit number (hundreds, tens, ones).
• Compare and order numbers up to 1000.
• Identify, represent and estimate numbers using different representations.
• Read and write numbers up to 1000 in numerals and in words.
• Solve number problems and practical problems involving these ideas.

Year 4

• Count in multiples of 6, 7, 9, 25 and 1000.
• Find 1000 more or less than a given number.
• Count backwards through zero to include negative numbers.
• Recognise the place value of each digit in a four-digit number (thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones).
• Order and compare numbers beyond 1000.
• Identify, represent and estimate numbers using different representations.
• Round any number to the nearest 10, 100 or 1000.
• Solve number and practical problems that involve all of the above and with increasingly large positive numbers.
• Read Roman numerals to 100 (I to C) and know that over time, the numeral system changed to include the concept of zero and place value.

Year 5

• Read, write, order and compare numbers to at least 1 000 000 and determine the value of each digit.
• Count forwards or backwards in steps of powers of 10 for any given number up to 1 000 000.
• Interpret negative numbers in context, count forwards and backwards with positive and negative whole numbers, including through zero.
• Round any number up to 1 000 000 to the nearest 10, 100, 1000, 10 000 and 100 000.
• Solve number problems and practical problems that involve all of the above.
• Read Roman numerals to 1000 (M) and recognise years written in Roman numerals.

Year 6

• Read, write, order and compare numbers up to 10 000 000 and determine the value of each digit.
• Round any whole number to a required degree of accuracy.
• Use negative numbers in context, and calculate intervals across zero.
• Solve number and practical problems that involve all of the above.
