Solve number and practical problems involving reading, writing, ordering, comparing, rounding, and negative numbers up to 10,000,000
Suggested ages 10–11
Learning journey
Your child is mastering large numbers and decimals — reading, writing, and comparing numbers up to 10 million, understanding how decimal places work, and using negative numbers in real-world contexts like temperature and money.
Evidence of understanding
- A country's population is 8,274,500 — round to the nearest million for a headline
- Order the depths of three ocean trenches given in metres including negative values
- Estimate the total attendance at three events by rounding each to the nearest 100,000
Assessment prompt
If Numbers to Ten Million reads that the distance to the Moon is about 384,400 km, can they round it to the nearest 10,000 km and say whether it's closer to 380,000 or 390,000?
