Equivalent Fractions 1 Lesson

This Year 4 Equivalent Fractions 1 lesson covers the prior learning of using number lines to identify equivalent fractions, before moving onto the main skill of using fraction strips to find equivalent fractions.

The lesson starts with a prior learning worksheet to check pupils’ understanding. The interactive lesson slides recap the prior learning before moving on to the main skill.
