As titled. An activity, aimed at year 4, to extend children’s thinking about adding fractions with the same denominators. This compare two addition situations where the answers have different denominators. Children still need to use the skills learned to add the fractions, but must apply their knowledge of fractions in order to compare accurately. This could be used as an assessment or an activity at the end of a lesson based around subtracting fractions with the same denominators. Children will need to have explored how to compare fractions that have different denominators and addition of fractions with the same denominator. Useful as a step before finding the lowest common multiple to compare fractions which they would explore in year 5.
