An integer is a number that has no fractional part - they are whole numbers. This includes the counting numbers e.g, 1, 2, 3 and zero.

Maths

Estimate the position of a number on a number line using fraction sense

Compare and order mixed numbers using fraction sense

Compare mixed numbers when the numerators of fractional parts are different

Compare mixed numbers when the denominators of fractional parts are different

In this unit pupils will estimate the position of numbers on a number line using fraction sense. They will compare and order mixed numbers using fraction sense when the whole number and the numerator of the fractional part is the same. In the future unit pupils will make efficient choices about the order they solve an addition and subtraction problem involving mixed numbers.

In the prior unit pupils composed and decomposed quantities made of whole numbers and fractional parts. In this unit pupils will estimate the position of numbers on a number line using fraction sense. They will compare and order mixed numbers using fraction sense when the whole number and the numerator of the fractional part is the same.

Compare and order mixed numbers and position on a number line

When we estimate, we find a value that is close enough to the right answer, usually with some thought or calculation involved.
