WALT identify fractions greater than 1
Start today’s learning by looking at the maths starter of the day. This is more of an open-ended task related to fractions. There is no ‘right answer’ so you won’t find any answers on the website. We will discuss some possible solutions in the live part of the lesson. Be ready to justify your responses and ABC what your peers say.
Today, we are going to learn how to identify fractions greater than 1, which should be a recap from year 4. In the live part of the lesson, we will be looking at using visual methods, such as part-whole models, to write sentences about fractions greater than 1. We will also look through some example questions from today’s challenges. Then, Miss Bushell will direct you to complete one of the following challenges:

WALT convert improper fractions to mixed number fractions
Start today’s learning by looking at the maths starter of the day. This is more of an open-ended task related to fractions. There is no ‘right answer’ so you won’t find any answers on the website. We will discuss some possible solutions in the live part of the lesson. Be ready to justify your responses and ABC what your peers say.
Today, we are going to learn how to convert improper fractions to mixed number fractions for the first time. In the live part of the lesson, we will be looking at what these two terms mean as well as various visual methods to help us convert these fractions. Then, Mr Morris will direct you to complete one of the following challenges:

WALT convert mixed number fractions to improper fractions
Start today’s learning by looking at the maths starter of the day. This is more of an open-ended task related to fractions. There is no ‘right answer’ so you won’t find any answers on the website.

Today, we are going to learn to do the opposite of yesterday’s lesson. We are now going to be learning how to convert mixed numbers to improper fractions. In the live part of the lesson, we will be looking at various visual methods to help us convert these fractions. Then, Miss Ring will direct you to complete one of the following challenges:

WALT sequence fractions
Start today’s learning by looking at the maths starter of the day. This is more of an open-ended task related to fractions. There is no ‘right answer’ so you won’t find any answers on the website. We will discuss some possible solutions in the live part of the lesson. Be ready to justify your responses and ABC what your peers say.
Today, we are going to be putting fractions in order. To begin with we will look at sequencing fractions with the same denominator. We will then use our knowledge of equivalent fractions to help us sequence fractions with different denominators which are multiples of the same number. Then, Miss Bushell will direct you to complete one of the following challenges:
Fancy an extra challenge?
Complete Deep, Deeper or Deepest (or all three!) as Step 3 in your learning.

WALT compare and order fractions less than 1
Start today’s learning by looking at the maths starter of the day. This is more of an open-ended task related to fractions. There is no ‘right answer’ so you won’t find any answers on the website. We will discuss some possible solutions in the live part of the lesson. Be ready to justify your responses and ABC what your peers say.
Today, we are going to be comparing and ordering fractions less than 1. We will build on our knowledge from yesterday’s lesson and our equivalent fraction knowledge to compare and order fractions less than 1 where the denominators are multiples of the same number. We will learn how to compare the fractions by finding a common denominator or a common numerator and use visual methods to support us. Then, Mr Morris will direct you to complete one of the following challenges:
Fancy an extra challenge?
Complete Deep, Deeper or Deepest (or all three!) as Step 3 in your learning.
Need some more help?
The videos above from yesterday's lesson will help you to compare and order fractions less than 1.
