What's included?
Foundational Year 1 resources for pupils to recognise a half of an object or shape, establishing the concept of two equal parts, a core KS1 Maths fraction objective. Materials employ the CPA approach to build conceptual understanding that the parts must be equal for a fraction to be correct. This initial small step supports reasoning and is crucial for meeting national curriculum expectations for initial fraction work. The CS Maths Scheme provides varied visual examples for identification practice.
