4️⃣5️⃣ seconds on UKS2 fractions with Numicon Converting between mixed numbers & improper fractions is quite possibly my favourite use of Numicon shapes. Every child can succeed by breaking it down to a question every child can answer: how many pegs? This is how I ❤️ to do it👇🏼

@OUPPrimary @craigtilstone @curious_maths @pdLouiseP @MrWithersKS1 Hi! Really enjoy your numicon fraction demos! Can you explain how you might manage a misconception that the top model implies that 7/5 = 7/10?

@OUPPrimary @craigtilstone @curious_maths @pdLouiseP @MrWithersKS1 Lots of groundwork & prior learning reaffirming that the denom. tells us how many equal parts the whole has been split into, and being clear that we are representing/writing the fraction in a different way. We are not changing the fraction. Show 7/10 & discuss what is different😊

@OUPPrimary @craigtilstone @curious_maths @pdLouiseP @MrWithersKS1 Love it! I’d love to have some proper numicon training someday! There’s just SO much you can do with it! 💛🌻

@OUPPrimary @craigtilstone @curious_maths @pdLouiseP @MrWithersKS1 @OUPPrimary offer lots of CPD and often do free webinars on using Numicon. Give them and @pdLouiseP a follow if you don’t already ☺️

@MrWithersKS1 @OUPPrimary @craigtilstone @curious_maths @pdLouiseP What fabulous use of numicon 🤍

@OUPPrimary @craigtilstone @curious_maths @pdLouiseP @MrWithersKS1 Used this with a Y5 class last week and it went down a treat🤩! Really helped ensure thorough understanding before moving on to written work ☺️

@OUPPrimary Thanks for sharing 😊
