Lesson Three – Changing Fractions

This maths teaching pack for Key Stage Two gets the children to practise and illustrate some of the different ways that can be used to convert improper fractions into their matching mixed number fractions.

The class can identify and explain how to use diagrams and calculations to show how to make each of the fraction conversions between improper and mixed number fractions.

Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to teach the children to practise and illustrate some of the different ways that can be used to convert improper fractions into their matching mixed number fractions

Activities in this teaching pack include a worksheet to identify and record how to convert between improper and mixed number fractions using diagrams and calculations and a set of cards to match pairs of improper and mixed number fractions.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to convert different improper fractions into mixed number fractions using diagrams and calculations.

This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to identify and illustrate how to change and convert the values of different fractions using equivalence, simplification and conversion between mixed and improper fractions. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
