the one above has some info on gifted and talented, but the nagc website seems to be better.

assessment of speaking and listening, reading and writing these documents will be replaced shortly, (when the government gets around to it! ) they give some guidance on the different areas that are assessed.

YEAR 1 BLOCK A UNIT 2 (SPRING) COUNTING, PARTITIONING AND CALCULATING
I Can Statements / End of year Objectives Red is Using and Applying
I can solve a problem or puzzle using adding/subtracting.
(Solve problems involving counting, adding, subtracting, doubling or halving in
the context of numbers, measures or money, for example to ?pay? and ?give
change?.)
I can talk about how I solve problems using adding/subtracting.
(Describe ways of solving puzzles and problems, explaining choices and
decisions orally or using pictures.)

1 I can estimate the number in a group of up to 20 objects.
I can check the number by counting.
(Count reliably at least 20 objects, recognising that when rearranged the
number of objects stays the same; estimate a number of objects that can be
checked by counting.)
2 I know how to write numbers up to 20.
I know where numbers up to 20 or more belong on a number track.

  • I can show two-digit numbers using practical apparatus and relate this to how the numbers are written. (Read and write numerals from 0 to 20, then beyond; use knowledge of place value to position these numbers on a number track and number line.) 3 I can put numbers up to 20 or more in order. (Compare and order numbers, using the related vocabulary; use the equals (=) sign.) 4 I know the number that is one more or one less than any number up to 20 or more. (Say the number that is 1 more or less than any given number, and 10 more or less for multiples of 10.) 5 I can add 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9 to numbers up to 20 or more. (Relate addition to counting on; recognise that addition can be done in any order; use practical and informal written methods to support the addition of a one-digit number or a multiple of 10 to a one-digit or two-digit number.) 6 I can work out the difference between two numbers. (Understand subtraction as ?take away? and find a ?difference? by counting up; use practical and informal written methods to support the subtraction of a one-digit number from a one-digit or two-digit number and a multiple of 10 from a two-digit number.) 5+6 I can talk about adding and subtracting. I can use the signs +, ? and = when I write addition and subtraction sentences. (Use the vocabulary related to addition and subtraction and symbols to describe and record addition and subtraction number sentences.)

I can use numbers or shapes to make patterns of my own.
I can describe my patterns to others.
*I can sort numbers and shapes in different ways.
(Describe simple patterns and relationships involving numbers or
shapes; decide whether examples satisfy given conditions.)

 I can use what it says in a problem to work out what sum to do.
 (Solve problems involving counting, adding, subtracting, doubling or 
 halving in the context of numbers, measures or money, for example to 
 ?pay? and ?give change?.)

1 I can count in ones forwards and backwards using numbers beyond 20.
I can count in twos up to ten and then up to twenty.
(*Count reliably at least 20 objects; estimate a number of objects

that can be checked by counting.)
2 I can say the number that is one more or one less than a number.
I can say the number that is ten more or ten less than a multiple of
ten.
(Say the number that is 1 more or less than any given number, and 10
more or less for multiples of 10.)
3 I know the pairs of numbers that total 10.
I know how to add numbers to make different totals up to 5 and I
am beginning to work out take away answers as well.
(Derive and recall all pairs of numbers with a total of 10 and addition
facts for totals to at least 5; work out the corresponding subtraction
facts.)
4 I can recall or work out the doubles of numbers up to 5 + 5 or more.
(Recall the doubles of all numbers to at least 10.)
5 I can use the correct symbols when representing a number story as a number sentence.
(*Record addition and subtraction number sentences.)
6 I know the names of familiar 2-D and 3-D shapes and I can picture
