Block C: Handling data and measures
Unit 1 – 10 days
Foundation Stage (Suggested objectives tracked back from Year 1) / Year 1 / Year 2
Sort objects, making choices and justifying decisions / Answer a question by selecting and using suitable equipment, and sorting information, shapes or objects; display results using tables and pictures
I can answer a question using the equipment my teacher uses

(see A1) / Follow a line of enquiry; answer questions by choosing and using suitable equipment and selecting, organising and presenting information in lists, tables and simple diagrams
I can decide what information I need to answer a question
I can put information in lists or tables
Use language such as 'greater', 'smaller', 'heavier' or 'lighter' to compare quantities / Estimate, measure, weigh and compare objects, choosing and using suitable uniform non-standard or standard units and measuring instruments (e.g. a lever balance, metre stick or measuring jug)
I can compare the lengths/ weights/ capacities of more than two objects and put them in order / Estimate, compare and measure lengths, weights and capacities, choosing and using standard units (m, cm, kg, litre) and suitable measuring instruments
I can find out if something is longer or shorter than a metre
I can find out if something will hold a litre of water
I can use a balance to compare two things to see which is lighter
I can use a balance to find out if something is lighter or heavier than a kilogram or half kilogram
Read the numbered divisions on a scale and interpret the divisions between them (e.g. on a scale from 0 to 25 with intervals of 1 shown but only the divisions 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 numbered); use a ruler to draw and measure lines to the nearest centimetre
I can read numbers on a scale
Count how many objects share a particular property, presenting results using pictures, drawings or numerals
Sort familiar objects to identify their similarities and differences / Answer a question by recording information in lists and tables; present outcomes using practical resources, pictures, block graphs or pictograms
I can help to answer a question and to show what we found out
Use diagrams to sort objects into groups according to a given criterion; suggest a different criterion for grouping the same objects
I can sort objects by placing them onto a big diagram / Answer a question by collecting and recording data in lists and tables; represent the data as block graphs or pictograms to show results; use ICT to organise and present data
I know how to collect information
I can use lists and tables to show what I have found out
Use lists, tables and diagrams to sort objects; explain choices using appropriate language, including 'not'
I can sort objects and talk about how I sorted them

I can estimate whether a container holds more or less than a litre
I can estimate whether an object is heavier or lighter than a half kilogram in one hand and the object in the other
I know how long a metre is and I know how long a centimetre is
Read the numbered divisions on a scale and interpret the divisions between them (e.g. on a scale from 0 to 25 with intervals of 1 shown but only the divisions 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 numbered); use a ruler to draw and measure lines to the nearest centimetre
I can use a ruler or metre stick to measure how long something is
I can read numbers on a scale and work out the numbers between them

Sort familiar objects to identify their similarities and differences / Answer a question by recording information in lists and tables; present outcomes using practical resources, pictures, block graphs or pictograms
I can draw pictures/ diagrams to show what I have found out
Use diagrams to sort objects into groups according to a given criterion; suggest a different criterion for grouping the same objects
I can sort objects using my own diagram to help me / Answer a question by collecting and recording data in lists and tables; represent the data as block graphs or pictograms to show results; use ICT to organise and present data
I can make block graphs and get information from other peoples graphs
