About this resource

Pupils know that both proper fractions and decimals fractions can be used to represent values between whole numbers. They now need to learn that the same value can be represented by both a decimal fraction and a proper fraction, and be able to recall common equivalents, beginning with unit fractions. Pupils should then extend their understanding and automatic recall to multiples of these unit fractions/decimal fractions, up to 1. Pupils must be able to use these common equivalents with little effort, applying them to solve comparison and measures problems such as those shown in the example assessment questions. For a given problem, posed using a mixture of decimal fractions and proper fractions, pupils should be able to make a sensible decision about whether to carry out the calculation using decimal fractions or proper fractions. Finally, pupils need to extend this knowledge beyond the 0 to 1 interval. They should know for example that 3.2km and 3 1/5 km are 2 different ways of writing the same distance.Read more

The standard small step pack, as her own modules ship it. We do not print page counts here, because her catalogue does not publish them and a guessed number is worse than none.

★★★ Differentiated three ways
  • Working towardsScaffolded, with the model or the bar already drawn.
  • Working withinThe expected standard for the year group.
  • Greater depthReasoning and explaining, not just more of the same.

Her own system, with the star count repeated in every worksheet header so a child can be handed the right sheet without a word.

Printed it at eight on a Sunday and taught it on the Monday.

No editing, no reformatting, no hunting for the answers. The three levels are on separate pages, which sounds obvious until you have used the sites where they are not.

Matches our White Rose planning almost week for week.

I stopped adapting things from three different sites and now start here. The odd week does not line up exactly, but the small step it covers is always somewhere in the same block.

The editable file is why we renewed.

Being able to change two questions for the child who joined us in January, without rebuilding the whole sheet, is worth the subscription on its own.
