Read and write fractions using words and symbols. E.g. one-half, two halves, thirds, fifths etc. Ask learners to color given fractions of given groups of object or match fractions to given groups of objects. Ask learners to cut given fractions from a given (e.g. 12cm long) card, bar or stick. Guide learners to locate missing fractions on a number. Draw and ask learners to locate the missing fractions on the number line Guide learners to locate missing fractions on a number. draw and ask learners to locate the missing fractions on the number line For this activity, learners use fraction strips cut from old cartons, bottle tops and exercise books to fold and compare fractional parts, model the required operation and record the results.

Ask learners to tell you what they have learnt Give learners individual or home task
