Ordering Fractions Using Equivalence

Our Squares maths group have been learning to order fractions using equivalence.

Today we worked out that
  • 4/5 > 3/4 by 1/20
  • 5/8 < 2/3 by 1/24
We have had to find common denominators to be able to calculate this. Some of the children were quite challenged by this new learning. It would be great if they could chat about this with you.
