Today is the last day of equivalent fractions, so make sure that you have a good understanding of the equivalent fractions we have been working on since last Thursday. 

Please listen to the following lesson on White Rose Maths

Lesson 2 – Step 3 - Equivalent Fractions (3)

Today you have a choice of completing either the age-related WR problems (found below and on the White Rose webpage) or the document with the Inprint visual clues and fewer White Rose questions (the answers can still be found on the answer sheet).
