2 | Adding and subtracting fractions

Author: Andy Lutwyche

This sheet lets students pick the section on which they need more work, from plain old fractions, through functional plain old fractions, through mixed numbers, through functional mixed numbers.

3 | Fractions of an amount treasure hunt

Author: David Morse

This activity requires students to work out factions of an amount when the numerator is not ‘1’. Deciphering the encrypted clue reveals where the treasure is hidden! It is great for consolidation or revision.

These question cards have been prepared in two sizes. The large cards can be pinned around around the classroom and used for a whole class activity; the smaller (loop cards) can be used for group work or by individuals.

5 | Fractions of an amount loop cards

Author: David Morse

These reusable cards are excellent for one-to-one tutorials and interventions. They are also great when working with small groups or as a starter/plenary for a whole class.

This particular set allows students to practise working out fractions of quantities when the numerator of the fraction is not ‘1’.

In this download there are four sets of similar cards and a student chooses one of the sets and sorts them into order by answering the questions. Then they try to do it faster using a different set, which has the same questions, but a different sort order
