Fractions

As mathematicians, we have been learning about fractions in our recent lessons.

So far, we have learnt about one quarter, one half and three quarters.

Our Year 2 children have impressed us with their ability to find fractions of an amount using a precise written method.

Money is such an important part of mathematics and ‘Pay For It’ is a brilliant game that will help children to practise paying for items and also giving change. Have fun!
