This is a 4-way differentiated worksheet/activity sheet that tests children's understanding of how to add a mixed number to a proper fraction, which is tested at the end of Year Six and onwards in SATs assessments (arithmetic/reasoning) and in other end of year assessments.
There are four challenges:

-Add a mixed number to a proper fraction (different denominators).
-Add two mixed numbers to a proper fraction (same denominators)

At each stage, children will be expected to give their answer in its simplest form, as is standard practice in the assessed tests.
I have also included an answer sheet.
