What should children learn in Year 5 Maths?

In Year 5 Maths, children build greater fluency, independence and confidence as they tackle increasingly complex mathematical ideas. They work with larger numbers, develop efficient mental and written calculation methods and deepen their understanding of multiplication, division, fractions, decimals and percentages. Across the Year 5 Maths curriculum, children also develop their knowledge of measurement, geometry and statistics, applying what they know to increasingly challenging Year 5 Maths questions and explaining their reasoning when solving problems.

01

Develop number and calculation fluency

Help children work confidently with numbers to at least 1,000,000, including reading, writing, ordering, comparing and rounding numbers and interpreting negative numbers in context. Children should develop increasingly efficient mental and written methods for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, while exploring factors, multiples, prime numbers, square numbers and cube numbers.

02

Explore fractions, decimals and percentages

Deepen children's understanding of fractions by comparing and ordering fractions, identifying equivalent fractions and developing strategies for calculating with them. Children should make connections between fractions, decimals and percentages, develop their understanding of decimal place value and use this knowledge to solve a growing range of mathematical problems.

03

Develop measurement and time skills

Give children opportunities to convert between different units of metric measure and apply their knowledge of length, mass, capacity and time to practical problems. Children should develop their understanding of perimeter and area, estimate and compare measures, interpret timetables and calendars, and choose appropriate methods when solving Year 5 Maths problems involving measurement.

04

Explore geometry, statistics and reasoning

Extend children's understanding of angles, triangles and other 2D and 3D shapes, and develop their ability to investigate symmetry, reflection and coordinates. Children should also interpret information presented in tables, graphs and diagrams, describe and compare data, and apply mathematical reasoning and problem-solving skills across all areas of Year 5 Maths.
