Revise fractions; find unit and non-unit fractions of amounts - Teaching Presentation - Year 4
This presentation provides three days of teaching that cover the objectives:
Count in 1⁄4s, 1⁄3s, 1⁄8s and 1⁄10s saying equivalent fractions.
Find unit and non-unit fractions of amounts.
It includes starter activities, whole class teaching, group activities, practice sheets and mastery questions. It can be used on a variety of interactive whiteboards.
Day 1
Count in thirds along a 0-5 line marked in thirds. Point at a mark; children write the number. Repeat with a line showing 1/4s. Stress mixed numbers, e.g.one and three quarters; equivalence, e.g. one and a half is the same as one and two quarters. Repeat for tenths.
Day 2
– Use a picture of a chocolate bar with 30 pieces to show how to find 1/5, 3/5, and 4/5 of 30, then 1/6 of 30 and 5/6 of 30. Repeat with 50 pieces to find 1/10 and subsequent non-unit fractions, e.g. 3/10.
Day 3
Sketch a pizza and divide it into eight equal sections. If 16 bits of salami are distributed equally, how much on each slice? Show that 1/8 of 16 is 2 (16 ÷ 8); then derive other facts: 2/8 of 16 = 4, 3/8 of 16 = 6, etc. Show that 4/8 is 1/2. Demonstrate using a bar model and repeat with 24 pieces of tomato.
This teaching is part of Hamilton’s Year 4 Decimals and Fractions block. Each Hamilton maths block contains a complete set of planning and resources to teach a term’s worth of objectives for one of the National Curriculum for England’s maths areas.
