Success Criteria

Lesson 1: Units & Benchmarks

• I can say about how long a familiar event lasts, using a named unit

• I can compare what I said to what actually happened

• I can say whether an event lasted more or less than a day without using a calendar

• I can describe the duration of two events and say which lasted longer

• I can compare two events that started at different times by how long each one lasted

Success Criteria

Lesson 2: Describing Duration

We are learning to describe how long an event lasts using a unit and an event we already know to compare it to.

• I can place the events of a school day in order

• I can say what happens before and after a named event

• I can work out what day it will be a stated number of days from now

• I can read a weekly timetable to say when something happens

• I can say how many days there are between two events on a timetable

Success Criteria
