Step 3: Start lesson 1 and have a look around
Students will use paper folds to conceptually explore equivalent fractions. They may also use multiplication to prove their thinking.
Students will use visuals and multiplication to create equivalent fractions for their ‘fishy friends‘.
Students will apply their understanding of equivalent fractions in a game called Ducks in a Row.
Students will learn how to simplify fractions using the greatest common factor. They will organise baby dinosaurs into dinosaur families.
Students will use greatest common factors and visuals to explore how to simplify fractions. They will solve clues to identify the Fraction Foe.
This lesson explores the concept of comparing fractions with unlike denominators using the lowest common multiples. They will compare fractions to find the winner of the Monster Munch Championships.
Students will continue to apply their knowledge of comparing fractions with a pirate-themed game called Up The Ranks.
Students will explore how to calculate fractions of amounts through visuals, diagrams and number sentences. Students will apply this knowledge to a garden themed problem-solving activity.
Students will apply their knowledge of fractions of amounts in order to problem-solve. They will solve spending scenarios.
Students will investigate the relationship between mixed numbers and improper fractions using picture prompts, number lines and calculations.
Students will explore how to convert improper fractions into mixed numbers by playing a game called Wholey Moley.
Students will add and subtract fractions with like and unlike denominators using playing cards.
Students will add and subtract fractions with like and unlike denominators and use their skills to solve secret square puzzles.
Students will convert and write fractions as decimals and percentages. They will make their own pixelation picture that includes decimals, fractions and percentages.
Students will continue to apply their knowledge and delve deeper into converting fractions, decimals and percentages. They will explore connections between fractions, decimals and percentages.
Students will explore how to multiply fractions by whole numbers. They will roll dice or flip cards to create and solve multiplication number sentences.
