Year 3 mathematics lesson plans (national curriculum)

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-001

count from 0 in multiples of 4, 8, 50 and 100; find 10 or 100 more or less than a given number

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-002

recognise the place value of each digit in a 3-digit number (100s, 10s, 1s)

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-003

compare and order numbers up to 1,000

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-004

identify, represent and estimate numbers using different representations

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-005

read and write numbers up to 1,000 in numerals and in words

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-006

solve number problems and practical problems involving these ideas

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-007

add and subtract numbers mentally, including:

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-008

add and subtract numbers with up to 3 digits, using formal written methods of columnar addition and subtraction

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-009

estimate the answer to a calculation and use inverse operations to check answers

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-010

solve problems, including missing number problems, using number facts, place value, and more complex addition and subtraction

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-011

recall and use multiplication and division facts for the 3, 4 and 8 multiplication tables

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-012

write and calculate mathematical statements for multiplication and division using the multiplication tables that they know, including for two-digit numbers times one-digit numbers, using mental and progressing to formal written methods

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-013

solve problems, including missing number problems, involving multiplication and division, including positive integer scaling problems and correspondence problems in which n objects are connected to m objects

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-014

count up and down in tenths; recognise that tenths arise from dividing an object into 10 equal parts and in dividing one-digit numbers or quantities by 10

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-015

recognise, find and write fractions of a discrete set of objects: unit fractions and non-unit fractions with small denominators

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-016

recognise and use fractions as numbers: unit fractions and non-unit fractions with small denominators

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-017

recognise and show, using diagrams, equivalent fractions with small denominators

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-018

add and subtract fractions with the same denominator within one whole [for example, [Fraction:5/7]+[Fraction:1/7] = [Fraction:6/7]]

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-019

compare and order unit fractions, and fractions with the same denominators

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-020

solve problems that involve all of the above

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-021

measure, compare, add and subtract: lengths (m/cm/mm); mass (kg/g); volume/capacity (l/ml)

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-022

measure the perimeter of simple 2-D shapes

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-023

add and subtract amounts of money to give change, using both £ and p in practical contexts

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-024

tell and write the time from an analogue clock, including using Roman numerals from I to XII, and 12-hour and 24-hour clocks

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-025

estimate and read time with increasing accuracy to the nearest minute; record and compare time in terms of seconds, minutes and hours; use vocabulary such as o’clock, am/pm, morning, afternoon, noon and midnight

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-026

know the number of seconds in a minute and the number of days in each month, year and leap year

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-027

compare durations of events [for example, to calculate the time taken by particular events or tasks]

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-028

draw 2-D shapes and make 3-D shapes using modelling materials; recognise 3-D shapes in different orientations and describe them

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-029

recognise angles as a property of shape or a description of a turn

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-030

identify right angles, recognise that 2 right angles make a half-turn, 3 make three-quarters of a turn and 4 a complete turn; identify whether angles are greater than or less than a right angle

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-031

identify horizontal and vertical lines and pairs of perpendicular and parallel lines

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-032

interpret and present data using bar charts, pictograms and tables

ENG-NC-MA-Y3-033

solve one-step and two-step questions [for example ‘How many more?’ and ‘How many fewer?’] using information presented in scaled bar charts and pictograms and tables
