Stage 1

Three-dimensional spatial structure B
3D objects: Describe the features of three-dimensional objects
  • Describe three-dimensional Loading  (prisms) using the terms ‘Loading ’, ‘Loading ’ and ‘Loading 

  • Represent three-dimensional objects by making simple models

  • Recognise and name flat Loading  of three-dimensional objects as Loading  Loading 

Volume: Compare containers based on internal volume (capacity) by filling and packing
  • Make and use a device for measuring Loading  calibrated in Loading  informal units

  • Compare, order and record the internal volumes (capacities) of two or more Loading  by measuring each container in uniform informal units

  • Estimate internal volume (capacity) by referring to the number and type of uniform informal unit used

Volume: Compare volumes using uniform informal units
  • Estimate the Loading  of two or more models and check by counting the number of blocks used in each model

  • Compare models with different appearances, recognising when they have the same volume (Reasons about spatial structure)

  • Record the results of volume comparisons using drawings, numerals and words, referring to the units used

  • Explain that models made of the same number of units may have different volumes depending on the size of the units used (Reasons about spatial relations)
