Mathematics: Pitch and Expectations in Year 4

A document outlining the pitch and expectations for mathematics in Year 4 is available for download here. It is also linked on the right side of the blog page. The document gives examples of questions and problems matched to different National Curriculum Levels.

Some students have been studying hard and trying all the questions. Watch out for some misprinted questions. Question 28 on page 25, and the last question on the left side of page 5, are misprinted. Don't try to do those questions.
