Learning Objectives
Starter:
- To simplify fractions
Main Lesson:
- To identify, name and write equivalent fractions of a given fraction, represented visually, including tenths and hundredths (Year 5)
- To use common multiples to simplify fractions (Year 6)
This lesson consists of:
A connect activity challenging children to explain what fractions are and how they can be written – allowing you assess prior learning. A Starter consisting of a series of progressively harder, visual representations of fractions for the children to identify.
An Interactive Whiteboard teaching introduction for both Notebook and ActivInspire flipchart, to teach children to allow children to understanding both visually and mathematically equivalence in fractions. A second teaching activity allowing the children how to use cancelling to simplify fractions.
A 4-way differentiated series of tasks requiring children to simplify fractions.
A final AFL / Next Steps task, asking children to apply their knowledge to a SATs question, where they can demonstrate their understanding of equivalence and simplification of fractions.
