Our discussion problems are designed to get children talking about their work, their methods of calculating, and the answers they get to their questions. This Year 5 Use Fractions as Operators Discussion Problem encourages children to see the link between 'of' and 'x' when using fractions. An answer page that includes an example answer for each question is also included with this resource, though there may be other ways to solve the problems. We suggest letting children mark their own work to encourage more discussion and self-correction.
