Mathematics Year 5: (5F2a) Recognise mixed numbers and improper fractions and convert from one form to the other and write mathematical statements > 1 as a mixed number [for example, 2/5 + 4/5 = 6/5 = 1 1/5 ]
Mathematics Year 5: (5F4) Add and subtract fractions with the same denominator and denominators that are multiples of the same number
Differentiation For Year 5 Add Fractions:
Varied Fluency
Developing Questions to support adding 2 fractions with sums greater than 1 where the denominators are the same, halves or doubles of each other.
Expected Questions to support adding 3 fractions with sums greater than 1 where the denominators are all direct multiples of each other.
Greater Depth Questions to support adding 3 fractions with sums greater than 1 where the denominators are not all direct multiples of each other. The lowest common denominator is not provided in the question.
Reasoning and Problem Solving
Questions 1, 4 and 7 (Reasoning)
Developing Decide whether a calculation is true or false and explain why. Denominators are the same, halves or doubles of each other.
Expected Decide whether a calculation is true or false and explain why. Denominators are multiples of the same number.
