2pp. Features and functions of the Equivalent Fractions Gadget: Demonstrate visually equivalence, simplifying, decimals & recurring decimal fractions.
free
Lesson Plan: Introduces the concept of what an equivalent fraction is, using cutting up fractions on shapes. Uses only x2 examples.
Lesson Plan: Develops the idea of equivalent fractions cutting fractions into many different but equal parts. Uses x3 or more examples.
Lesson Plan: Develops the idea of equivalent fractions reducing in size by joining fractional parts together.
Lesson Plan: Develops the idea of equivalent fractions reduced to their simplest form. Lots of practice to establish and reinforce concept.
Lesson Plan: Lots of practice to establishing and reinforcing the concept of equivalent fractions using multiple equivalences.
Lesson Plan: Numbers lines are used to show equivalence of fractions. Requires drawing on fractions on number lines and labelling them.
Lesson Plan: Introduces the concept of a common fraction written as a decimal. Relates to tenths and hundredths fractional shapes.
Lesson Plan: Advanced work on converting common fractions to recurring decimals, especially thirds and sixths. Also includes ‘approximately equal’ symbol.
