Lesson One – Equal and Unequal

This maths teaching pack for Key Stage One gets the children to identify and record how to divide different sized shapes into equal and unequal parts to match fraction values for halves.
The class can explain and model how to complete a selection of different picture diagrams to indicate how they have divided each of the shapes to indicate their matching equal parts.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to identify and record how to divide different sized shapes into equal and unequal parts to match fraction values for halves
Activities in this teaching pack include a set of differentiated worksheets to select and record some of the different ways that a range of rectangle shapes can be divided into matching equal parts for fraction values indicating their halves.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to divide different sized shapes into equal and unequal parts to match fraction values for halves.
This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to identify, calculate and record how to divide different shapes, quantities and numbers to illustrate the fractions of halves and quarters. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
