This month we have been looking at fractions 1 in school. We have been learning about halves, quarters, eighths, tenths, thirds, sixths, ninths, twelfths and fifths. We have been using fraction wheels and walls to compare fractions – equivalent fractions and ordering fractions smallest to biggest
We have focused on problems where we are finding a fraction of a number e.g. What is 1/8 of 72? yes, nine. What is 3/8 of 72? Yes, 27.
The girls have worked extremely hard to develop their understanding in this area which has been fantastic to see – well done girls!
I have linked below some useful websites to revise these concepts:
