CALCULATIONS WITH FRACTIONS

Below are the videos that will support children in year 5 with calculations related to caculating with fractions.  These videos aim to support children with their learning and also show to parents how we teach these strategies in school. It would be very helpful if parents/carers could support the school by teaching calculations in the same way as the videos in this section.

None of the videos have any sound.

If you have any questions about any of the videos, or anything else related to Maths, please speak to Mr Steward or Mr Lewis.
