Year 5 Maths Autumn Block 4 focuses on fractions, including equivalent fractions, improper fractions and mixed numbers. Aligned with the Year 5 National Curriculum and White Rose Maths progression, pupils compare and order fractions before developing their understanding of fraction addition and subtraction.
Across the block, pupils find equivalent fractions, convert between improper fractions and mixed numbers and compare fractions less than and greater than one. They then add and subtract fractions and mixed numbers, including calculations that cross a whole.
