Best Year 1 Parent (and learner)
Week 3 and 4 is all about fractions. This is a very abstract concept for learners. In these
two weeks, please use everyday tasks to help explain fractions to your child.
Examples:
Divide your sandwich in halve, you now have two halves, Together they are one
whole.
Divide your fruit in 4 equal parts, you now have 4 quarters, together they are one
whole.
Divide the washing pegs / macaroni pieces / pebbles / bottle caps in small
groups. How many pieces are there in total, how many pieces are there in a
small group? Everything represents the Denominator and one small group
represents the Numerator.
These are only ideas that you can use and can be amended to every household
as possible.
Thank you for the effort to complete this work. Please make use of the asking a
question functionality on the website if you have any questions regarding the content
of worksheets.

LESSON 10 – WHAT IS A FRACTION 28-04-2020
A fraction represents a part of a whole.
A fraction’s parts must all be equal in size, meaning all parts must be the same
size.
A fraction has two parts, a numerator and a denominator.
The numerator represents how many of the parts were used.
The denominator represents how many equal parts
the whole were divided in to.
Study the following diagrams:
Numerator
Denominator
1. Study the following diagrams. What part of each is colored?
2. Study the following triangles. What fraction of each triangle is coloured?
END LESSON 10
LESSON 11 – COUNT IN FRACTIONS 29-04-2020
1. Complete the number lines by writing the correct fraction at each open
line.
a)
b)
c)
d)
e)
f)
g)
h)
i)
j)
k)
2. The kangaroo jumps from 0 with 𝟏𝟏
𝟐 spaces. Show where the kangaroo
will land each time.
END LESSON 11
LESSON 12 – COMPARE FRACTIONS 30-04-2020
When fractions are compared, it works exactly the same as when we
compare whole numbers (Term 2 week 1 Lesson 3). We can use a fraction
wall to help us.
On the fraction wall we can see that 2
3 is bigger than
2
4 , Mathematically
we will write it as: 2
3 >
2
4
You can always use a ruler to make sure you read it correctly.
op
1. Use the fraction wall to compare the following fractions.
END LESSON 12
LESSON 13 – EQUIVALENT FRACTIONS 04-05-2020
Equivalent fractions
Equivalent means the same size.
Ex: 1
2=
2
4=
3
6=
4
8=
5
10=
6
12
1
3=
2
6=
3
9=
4
12
We can make fractions equivalent
By multiplying and dividing the
Numerator and denominator with
The same number.
2×4
5×4 =
8
2
Thus is 2
5=
8
20
2×2
5×2 =
4
10
Thus is 2
5=
4

1. Use the diagrams to determine the equivalent fractions for each of
the following fractions:
2. Make use of multiplication, division or the fraction wall to determine the
equivalent fractions for each of the following:
2
END LESSON 13
LESSON 14 – ARRANGE FRACTIONS 05-05-2020
In week 2 lesson 2 we arranged whole numbers in ascending and
descending order. Fractions can also be arranged.
Think about fractions like a cake at a party that is cut in to smaller
pieces. The more pieces we need to divide the cacke in the smaller
the pieces get.
If you get 1
2 of the cake the piece you get is nice and big,
1
3 is a bit smaller but still
nice and a bit bigger than 1
4 and like that the pieces will get smaller the more we
divide the cake. In other words the more people share the smaller the pieces
get.
**Mathematically: The bigger the denominator the smaller the fraction piece.
1. Use this knowledge to arrange the following fractions from small to big. You
can also use the fraction wall in the previous lesson.
2. Arrange the following fractions in descending order. (From big to small)
END LESSON 14
LESSON 15 – BREUKE VAN HEELGETALLE 06-05-2020
How do you determine the fraction of a whole number?
Example 1:
2
8 of 80 =
Whole number ÷ denominator (bottom) x numerator (top)
therefore (80 ÷ 8) x 2 = 20
Example 2:
4
6 of 60 bottles =
therefore… (60 ÷ 6) x 4 = 40 bottles
1. Determine thee fractions of whole numbers for each of the following. Show
all calculations.
a) 7
10 of 120 =
b) 1
4 of 16 =
c) 1
6 of 18 =
d) 1
3 of 21 =
e) 2
3 of 42 =
f) 2
5 of 45 =
g) 1
8 of 88 =
h) 1
2 of 24 =
2. Complete the following word problems. Show all calculations:
a) 32 learners are going on a trip. Two quarters of the learners tool orange juice with them.
How many learners took orange juice with them?
____________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________

b) There are a 100 learners in Year 1. One quarter 1
4 make use of the bus to get to school.
How many learners make use of the bus?

END LESSON 15
LESSON 16 – FUN WITH FRACTIONS 07-05-2020
For this activity you will need a box of smarties. The size does not
matter.
1. Draw all the smatries in your box. Colour them in correctly.
2. How many Smarties are there in your box?_________
This is your denominator.
3. How many of each colour is in your box. (Write the colour and the number)
This is your numerator.
_____________ ______________ ______________
