In this lesson, children further develop their understanding of equivalent fractions. Children will learn how to multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number to find equivalent fractions, as well as using diagrams to help. There is a teaching presentation accompanied by differentiated activities with a range of fluency, reasoning and problem-solving questions.

National Curriculum Objectives:
Mathematics Year 4:

recognise and show, using diagrams, families of common equivalent fractions
solve problems involving increasingly harder fractions to calculate quantities, and fractions to divide quantities, including non-unit fractions where the answer is a whole number
add and subtract fractions with the same denominator

Differentiation:
There are three levels of differentiation in this pack: ‘working towards,’ ‘expected’ and ‘greater depth’.

Level of this Pack:

Age: 8-9

 England & Wales: Year 4
 Scotland: Primary 4
 Rep. Ireland: Third Class
