Year 3 | Add and Subtract Fractions and Find Unit Fractions Lesson Plan
Support your teaching of Year 3 fractions with this comprehensive Maths Masters lesson plan. Across five carefully sequenced lessons, pupils learn to add and subtract fractions with the same denominator, partition one whole into fractions, find unit fractions of sets and calculate unit fractions of amounts.
The lesson plan provides clear teaching guidance, lesson progression, key vocabulary, assessment questions and practical teaching suggestions for every lesson. It also shows teachers exactly how to use the accompanying teaching slides, differentiated worksheets and activity cards throughout the week.
Visual representations including fraction circles, bar models, part-whole models and number lines are used to help pupils develop a secure understanding of fractions and build confidence when solving fraction problems.
