Fraction Lengths, Masses and Capacities

This maths scheme of work for Key Stage Two gets the children to practise using division number skills to calculate and record the fractions of different measurements for length, mass and capacity. The class can explain how to use times tables facts to support division of different measurements.

Bottle Halves

Explain and model how to calculate one half of different bottle capacities that have been measured and recorded in millimetres

Cake Ingredients

Identify and record how to calculate one quarter of different numbers and measurements to find the matching numbers of ingredients that are needed for a cake recipe

Fraction Lengths

Investigate and record how to calculate and match unit and non-unit fractions of different measurements for length working with millimetres, centimetres and kilometres

Fraction Masses

Practise calculating the matching unit fractions of different measurements for mass that have been measured and recorded using grams

  • Friction

    Friction

    Investigate, describe and test the effects of air and water resistance and friction on different objects and materials presenting results using graphs and tables

  • Capacity Conversions

    Capacity Conversions

    Explain and model how to convert between different units of measurement for capacity by comparing and matching capacities in litres and millilitres

  • Story Conjunctions

    Story Conjunctions

    Identify and model how to link clauses in sentences related to some of the special characters and events that feature in different stories

  • Colon Lists

    Colon Lists

    Explain and model how to use colons to introduce lists on different topics and themes when they are preceded by a matching independent clause
