1. Grade 5 · Organize and analyze data.

Measurement Line Plots: Make a line plot to display measurement data in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8); solve problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions using line plot data
Understanding fractions: Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8); use operations on fractions to solve problems involving data in line plots (e.g. redistribute total equally)
Pictograms and tally charts (age 11+): Construct and interpret frequency tables, bar charts, pie charts, pictograms, and vertical line charts for both categorical and grouped numerical data, choosing appropriate representations for the data type

Plotting points in the first quadrant: Plot and read ordered pairs in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane; represent real-world and mathematical problems by graphing points and interpreting coordinate values in context

Measurement Conversions: Solve problems involving the calculation and conversion of units of measure, using decimal notation and multi-step reasoning in real-world contexts

Counting Unit Cubes: Measure volumes by counting unit cubes using cubic cm, cubic in, cubic ft, and other units
Estimating answers (age 10+): Find the volume of right rectangular prisms by packing with unit cubes and show it equals l × w × h (or base area × height); apply V = l × w × h and V = B × h to solve real-world problems; calculate, estimate, and compare volumes of cubes and cuboids in standard units (cm³, m³)
Volume as additive: Recognise volume as additive; find volumes of composite solid figures made of two or more non-overlapping right rectangular prisms
Area with Fractions: Find the area of a rectangle with fractional side lengths by tiling with unit-fraction squares; show that the area equals the product of the side lengths

Classifying shapes by line properties: Classify two-dimensional figures based on the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines, or angles of a specified size; recognise right triangles as a category
Classifying shapes by properties: Compare and classify geometric shapes based on their properties and sizes; understand that attributes belonging to a category also belong to all subcategories; classify two-dimensional figures in a hierarchy based on properties

Number Pattern Relationships: Generate two numerical patterns using two given rules; identify relationships between corresponding terms; form ordered pairs and graph them on a coordinate plane
Algebraic Notation: Use and interpret algebraic notation including: ab for a × b, 3y for y + y + y, a² for a × a, a/b for a ÷ b, coefficients as fractions, and brackets for grouping; read and write algebraic expressions fluently
Ratio (age 11+): Use conventional notation for the priority of operations including brackets, powers, roots, and reciprocals; apply BIDMAS/BODMAS consistently to evaluate complex numerical expressions

Dividing unit fractions and whole numbers: Solve real-world problems involving division of unit fractions by whole numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions, using visual models and equations
Real-world fraction multiplication: Solve real-world problems involving multiplication of fractions and mixed numbers, using visual fraction models or equations

Fractions on a number line: Understand and use place value for decimals, measures, and integers of any size; extend the number system to include all positive and negative integers, decimals, and fractions on a single number line
Multiplying fractions: Understand a/b as a multiple of 1/b; multiply proper fractions and mixed numbers by whole numbers, supported by visual models (e.g. 3 × 2/5 = 6/5 = 1 1/5)
Adding Fractions (Unlike Denominators): Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators (including mixed numbers) by replacing given fractions with equivalent fractions to produce a common denominator
Fluent addition and subtraction (age 9+): Fluently add and subtract whole numbers with more than four digits using the standard columnar algorithm
Addition and subtraction strategies (age 10+): Add and subtract decimals to hundredths using strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and the relationship between addition and subtraction; relate strategies to written methods and explain reasoning
Decimal place value: Multiply one-digit numbers with up to two decimal places by whole numbers (e.g. 3.47 × 6)

Dividing fractions (unit fractions): Interpret and compute division of a unit fraction by a non-zero whole number (e.g. 1/3 ÷ 4 = 1/12); use visual models and the relationship between multiplication and division to explain the result

Comparing Decimals: Compare two decimals to hundredths (or up to three decimal places) by reasoning about size using place-value understanding; record with >, =, <
Reading and writing numbers (age 10+): Read, write, and compare decimals to thousandths using base-ten numerals, number names, and expanded form; compare using >, =, < based on place-value meaning

Decimal place value: Round decimals to any place using place-value understanding; round any whole number to a required degree of accuracy
Place Value × 10 Pattern: Recognise that in a multi-digit whole number, a digit in one place represents ten times what it represents in the place to its right (e.g. 700 ÷ 70 = 10)
Place Value × 10 and ÷ 10: Recognise that in a multi-digit number, a digit in one place represents 10 times as much as in the place to its right and 1/10 of what it represents in the place to its left
Patterns with Powers of Ten: Explain patterns in zeros when multiplying by powers of 10 and in decimal-point placement when multiplying/dividing by a power of 10; use whole-number exponents to denote powers of 10 (e.g. 10³ = 1000)
