Content description VC2M3N03

Mathematics Version 2.0 / Level 3 / Number
Content description
recognise and represent unit fractions including 12, 13, 14, 15 and 110 and their multiples in different ways; combine fractions with the same denominator to complete the whole
Elaborations
  1. recognising that unit fractions represent equal parts of a whole; for example, one-third is one of 3 equal parts of a whole
  2. representing unit fractions and their multiples in different ways; for example, using a Think Board to represent three-quarters using a diagram, concrete materials, a situation and fraction notation
  3. cutting objects such as oranges, sandwiches or playdough into halves, quarters or fifths and reassembling them to demonstrate (for example, two-halves make a whole, four-quarters make a whole), counting the fractions as they go
  4. sharing collections of objects, such as icy pole sticks or counters, between 3, 4 and 5 people and connecting division with fractions; for example, sharing equally between 3 people gives 13 of the collection to each and sharing equally between 5 people gives 15 of the collection to each
