If you're looking for an extra challenge to deepen children's understanding about fractions, then this Year 3 Tenths Discussion Problem is perfect! It includes two open-ended questions for children to investigate and find possible solutions. One activity involves matching different representations to make pairs and the other uses clues to build towers of certain heights. Due to a range of answers, there are numerous opportunities for pupils to explain their reasoning.
