Lesson 1:Describe, compare and order common fractions including tenths and hundredths
Lesson 2:Perform calculations with fractions i.e. addition and subtraction of common and mixed fractions in which one denominator is a multiple of another
Lesson 3: Find fractions and percentages of whole numbers
Lesson 4: Solve context related problems including grouping and sharing
Lesson 5:Recognize and use equivalent forms of common fractions ,decimal fractions and percentage forms of the same number
�Describe, compare and order common fractions including tenths and hundredths���Lesson 1: �
Meaning of common fractions
Fractions are equal parts of a whole or a group of wholes. When a whole or wholes are divided into equal parts, each part is a fraction. The examples of fractions below are from one whole divided into equal parts.
Examples of common fractions of discrete objects
Type of fractions: Proper, improper and mixed fractions
PARTS OF A FRACTION�� NUMERATOR AND DENOMINATOR
EQUIVALENT FRACTIONS
��Ordering fractions�
Descending order
Arranging fractions
from biggest to smallest to largest
To order fractions means to compare them to find which are larger or smaller. In order to do this, we need to use our knowledge of equivalent fractions and make the denominators equal.
Ascending order
Arranging fractions
from biggest to biggest
�Perform calculations with fractions i.e. addition and subtraction of common and mixed fractions in which one denominator is a multiple of another� ��Lesson 2: �

To subtract fractions, they must have the same denominator
(they must be split into the same size pieces)

If all the denominators are the same, the calculation is easy!

Perform calculations with fractions
WHEN THE DENOMINATORS (THE BOTTOM NUMBERS) ARE NOT THE SAME, WE CAN ALTERNATIVELY USE THE LCM
WHAT DOES LCM MEAN? IT MEANS LEAST COMMON DENOMINATOR?
