Check understanding

  • Use the = sign correctly to mean 'is the same as' rather than 'the answer is'
  • Include units when giving a measurement answer (e.g. '12 cm' not just '12')
  • Use precise terms such as 'edge', 'vertex', 'face' when describing 3-D shapes, and 'greater than', 'less than' when comparing numbers
“When your child writes or talks about a maths answer, do they include the units — like "5 centimetres" rather than just "5" — and use the right symbols like = or <?”
