Multiplication and Division - Multiply by 1 and 0 - Starter

In the 'Fluent in Four - Revision' section for Year 4, Autumn Term, Week 10, Day 5, students are tasked with a series of calculations designed to strengthen their arithmetic skills. The exercise involves simple operations such as addition, subtraction, and particularly focuses on multiplication and division by 1 and 0. Students are required to calculate and match the correct answers to given divisions, such as 250 ÷ 10 and 2,500 ÷ 10, with the answers being 25 and 250 respectively. This matching activity helps reinforce their understanding of basic division concepts.

Additionally, the students compare volumes of liquid in different containers, converting between litres and millilitres to find the equivalent amounts. For example, they are asked to compare 1 litre to a certain number of millilitres and half a litre to another amount, thus applying their knowledge of volume and conversion. Furthermore, Year 3 students' observations from a park visit are to be represented in a pictogram, requiring them to visually display data. They recorded the number of different types of flowers, such as daffodils and pansies, and these findings must be translated into a pictogram format, which is a fundamental skill in data handling and representation.
