Fractions Jigsaw Practice for Upper KS2
This resource offers a comprehensive set of SATs-style questions on fractions, tailored specifically for Year 6 pupils. Designed with collaborative learning in mind, pupils work in “Jigsaw groups” of four to solve fraction problems, promoting teamwork and peer-to-peer support.
The resource covers key areas of the KS2 Maths curriculum, focusing on fractions, percentages, and problem-solving. Pupils will engage with a wide variety of tasks, including:
Converting fractions to percentages and vice versa.
Identifying fractional parts of sets and logos.
Solving real-world fraction problems, such as calculating the fraction of a class using iPads.
Performing operations with fractions, including addition and finding fractions of numbers.
Each set of questions is organised to help pupils strengthen their understanding of fractions through practical and visual problems. This resource not only reinforces core concepts but also prepares pupils for the SATs exams by giving them practice with question formats they are likely to encounter.
Key Features:
SATs-Type Questions: Familiarise pupils with SATs-style questions focused on fractions, ensuring they are well-prepared for end-of-year assessments.
Collaborative Learning: Designed for use in Jigsaw groups, encouraging pupils to learn from one another in a structured yet flexible environment.
Comprehensive Coverage: Covers a wide range of fraction-related skills, from simple operations to more complex reasoning problems.
Evidence-Based: Built on research-based learning strategies that support deeper understanding and retention.
This is an essential resource for Year 6 teachers looking to provide engaging, collaborative, and curriculum-aligned practice in fractions, ensuring pupils are confident and ready for their SATs tests.
These 4 mini-SATs cover key areas such as fractions, decimals, numbers, and percentages at increasing levels of difficulty. In essence these four mini-SATs are skill builders. Pupils start with level 1 and move progressively to level 4. All answers provided.
Pupils start at level 1 (Maths Explorers) progress to level 2 (Maths Adventurers) then progress to level 3 (Maths Conquerors) and finally finish at level 4 (Maths Masters).
Here’s how they align with building maths skills from level 1 to level 4 in preparation for SATs:
Progression
Each mini-SAT progresses logically from basic to more complex tasks. For example, in Mini-SAT 1, basic fraction and decimal concepts are introduced (e.g., rounding and simple calculations), whereas Mini-SAT 4 includes more advanced tasks such as calculating fractions of larger numbers and solving percentage problems.
Skills Practice
The tasks cover essential arithmetic and reasoning skills, including working with fractions, performing decimal operations, rounding, and percentage calculations. Each set builds on the previous one, giving pupils the opportunity to reinforce their understanding as they advance.
Variety of Questions
The question types vary, which helps prepare pupils for the different styles of questions they might encounter on actual SATs. This includes written calculations, multiple-choice questions, and more open-ended problems that require explanation or justification.
Level Appropriateness
The levels are aimed at upper KS2 pupils. Level 1 introduces simpler concepts, while Level 4 moves into more complex and abstract ideas, such as multiple step calculations and working with percentages in various real-life scenarios.
Overall, the mini-SATs provide targeted practice that builds progressively on key maths skills. They also offer a clear progression that can help pupils gain confidence and competence as they prepare for their SATs.
