Year 4: Unit and non-unit fractions
Click on the link below to watch the video tutorial about fractions. Learn about numerators and denominators, unit fractions and non-unit fractions, explore different pictorial representations and how to write fractions.
These terms are all explained in the video, but I will also upload a couple of short videos to dojo to explain these terms.
Then, complete the worksheet below (Y4 Maths Monday). You could print it off and write on the worksheet, or write the answers on paper/exercise book, but remember to number your answers clearly so your parents can check you are correct.

These interactive lessons are from the natural curriculum website. Clicking on the links will take you to the relevant webpage. The children need to work through each of the 4 parts (see the tabs at the bottom…1- Learning objective, 2- The Grammar bit, 3- Whiteboard challenge, 4- Writing ideas.) There is a downloadable worksheet on the writing ideas page for children to complete, which you can also find at the bottom of this page. This can be printed for children to work on, or alternatively children could write their answers on paper/in a book.
Show your teacher how you got on by uploading a photo/screenshot of your work to your profile on class dojo.
