Lesson overview:Build a whole when a part is known
- In this lesson, we will work out how many equal and unequal parts the whole has and if we can build a whole once we know a part.
- In this lesson, we will work out how many equal and unequal parts the whole has and if we can build a whole once we know a part.
Fractions: parts and wholes:
- Explore the whole and part relationship in familiar contexts, using area, linear and quality models
- Explore the whole and part relationship and generalise that a part is always smaller than the whole
- Explore the Concept of 'Equal' and 'Unequal' Parts
- Embed the concept of equal parts and unequal parts
- Develop understanding that equal sized parts do not have to look the same
- Compare the size of parts when the whole is defined using familiar contexts
- Explore that size of part is relative to the size of the whole using familiar contexts
- Consider part whole relationships within the context of quantity models
- Build a whole when a part is known
- Explore different contexts for building a whole when a part is known
