📚 Part 1: Multiple Choice

Success criteria: I can identify when one denominator is a multiple of another and choose which fraction is greater or whether they are equal.

1. Which is larger: 1/3 or 2/6?

1/3

2/6

They are equal

2. Which is greater: 3/4 or 6/8?

3/4

6/8

They are equal

3. Which fraction is largest?

3/8, 1/4, 5/8

3/8

1/4

5/8

4. Check all that apply:

6 is a multiple of 3

4 is a multiple of 8

2/4 = 1/2

3/6 > 1/2

✏️ Part 2: Short Answers & Ordering

Success criteria: I can convert fractions using common denominators or equivalence, order groups of fractions correctly, and explain my reasoning using the words numerator, denominator and equivalent.

5. Match each fraction to an equivalent fraction.

A. 1/2

B. 2/3

C. 3/4

1. 6/8

2. 4/6

3. 2/4

6. Order these from smallest to largest. Show a line of working:

1/4, 3/8, 1/2

7. Compare and explain in one sentence using the word "equivalent": Which is larger, 4/5 or 8/10?

8. Word problem: Two friends share cake. Sam ate 2/5 and Lee ate 3/10. Who ate more? Show your reasoning.

9. Extension (for learners ready for a challenge): Order these from smallest to largest. (Hint: find a common denominator)

7/12, 2/3, 3/4

🔧 Support & Extension

Differentiation strategies: Provide fraction strips or a fraction wall for learners who need concrete support; offer sentence starters (e.g., "I know this because...") for language support; challenge advanced learners with improper fractions or mixed numbers.

Extension activities: Convert improper fractions and mixed numbers, or order a longer set of fractions with different denominators by finding the least common multiple.

Dyslexia-friendly reading options: Use a clear font (e.g., Arial), larger text, high-contrast paper, and present one question per line. Offer coloured fraction strips or overlays to reduce visual stress.
