More resources for Autumn Block 3 Step 1.
This pack includes:
Mathematics Year 6: (6F2) Use common factors to simplify fractions; use common multiples to express fractions in the same denomination
Differentiation:
Questions 1, 4 and 7 (Varied Fluency)
Developing Identify the fraction which will simplify to a given fraction when using denominators which are multiples of the numerator. Bar models included for support.
Expected Identify the fraction which will simplify to a given fraction when using the highest common factors of the numerator and denominator. Involving multiples of any number up to 12 x 12. Some pictorial support given.
Greater Depth Identify the fraction which will simplify to a given fraction when using the highest common factors of the numerator and denominator. Involving multiples of any number up to 12 x 12 and introducing multiples of 20 and 25. No pictorial support given.
Questions 2, 5 and 8 (Varied Fluency)
Developing Complete the fractions so that they simplify to a given fraction. Using denominators which are multiples of the numerator. Bar models included for support.
Expected Complete the fractions so that they simplify to a given fraction. Using the highest common factors of the numerator and denominator. Involving multiples of any number up to 12 x 12.
Greater Depth Complete the fractions so they simplify to a given fraction and then find one more fraction. Using highest common factors of the numerator and denominator. Involving multiples of any number up to 12 x 12 and introducing multiples of 20 and 25. No pictorial support given.
Questions 3, 6 and 9 (Reasoning and Problem Solving)
