Why this why now
This unit allows pupils to apply their understanding of unit fractions as one part of a number of equal parts in a whole in unfamiliar contexts including when the equal parts do not look the same. They will explore parts of wholes of 3-D shapes and linear contexts. Fractions of a line prepares pupils for the concept of fractions as numbers with a position on a number line rather than just as parts of a whole.
Prior knowledge requirements
- Recognise a whole as composed of parts
- Use part-part-whole models
- Apply knowledge of fractions or numbers in context
