Unit D – Fraction Halves

This maths scheme of work for Key Stage One gets the children to identify and record fractions that are halves of different shapes, quantities and numbers using concrete equipment and diagrams to model calculations. The class can illustrate how to combine two equal halves to make one whole shape or set of numbers.

Identify and record fractions that are halves of different shapes, quantities and numbers using concrete equipment and diagrams to model calculations

Lesson One : Food Halves
Investigate how to divide and record a range of food shapes that can be used for different meals into matching two equivalent halves

Lesson Two : Shape Halves
Practise identifying and recording how to divide a selection of different 2D shapes into their two equivalent halves so that each half is identical

Lesson Three : Zoo Animals
Explain and model how to divide some different numbers of wild animals that live in zoo to twenty into their matching equivalent halves

Lesson Four : Flower Pots
Identify and record how to divide different numbers of plants and flowers that are growing in pots to twenty into two matching equal halves

Lesson Five : Domino Halves
Practise using concrete objects to investigate and model how to divide different numbers to twenty into two equivalent halves by working with dots displayed on dominoes
