Activities in this teaching pack include a template to record how to count forwards in steps of one half and one quarter using diagrams to illustrate the matching fractions and a set of cards for support ability levels to record how to count forwards in steps of one half and one quarter using diagrams to model the sets of fractions.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to count forwards in steps of one half and one quarter using diagrams to record matching fractions.
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.
