Maths

Today, we are continuing our work on Fractions using the White Rose Maths Lessons. This will involve watching the video clip and completing the worksheet.  There is an answer sheet to check your work. 

Please complete Summer 1 (w/c 20 April) Lesson 1 – Equivalent Fractions 2 – This lesson builds on your knowledge from Friday’s work on equivalent fractions, you will use numberlines to compare fractions and also look at how we can multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number to get an equivalent fraction. 

You can find the video and resources for today’s lesson here https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-3/ 

Summer 1 (w/c 20 April) Lesson 1 – Equivalent Fractions 2 Watch the clip and follow the instructions.

Resources you will need: 
Please remember if you don’t have a printer you can copy into your maths book or onto paper. Try and complete as best as you can. 

Don’t forget Miss Goddard’s challenges: click here.

When you have finished use the answer sheet to mark your work. 

Things to remember

  • Remember the denominator (the bottom number) tells you how many equal parts you divide the whole into. So if you are finding 2/3 the 3 will tell you how many sections to split your numberline into.
  • The numberlines need to be the same length when comparing fractions.
  • For question 4 and 5 remember you can multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number to give you an equivalent fraction e.g. An equivalent fraction to 2/5 = 4/10 because if we look at 2/5 the numerator of 2 x 2 = 4 and the denominator 5 x 2 = 10 so this creates the fraction 4/10.
