This maths teaching pack for Key Stage One gets the children to practise using concrete equipment and pictorial diagrams to illustrate how to calculate the fraction of three quarters of different numbers.

The class can explain and model how to divide a quantity of shapes into four equal groups to support identifying finding and calculating the fraction of three quarters.

Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to practise using concrete equipment and pictorial diagrams to illustrate how to calculate the fraction of three quarters of different numbers

Activities in this teaching pack include a template to identify and record how to divide numbers of objects into four equal quarters to support calculating three quarters of a number and a set of cards to select different multiples of four to use when finding three quarters of numbers.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to use concrete equipment and diagrams to illustrate how to calculate three quarters of a number.

This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to find and illustrate fractions that are quarters of different shapes, quantities and numbers using concrete equipment and diagrams to model calculations and show equivalence to halves. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
