We began by sharing our knowledge of fractions and I then demonstrated that one whole – 2 halves etc. The children understood that fractions of a shape need to be the same size etc and I challenged them to build a fraction wall. The children knew that they couldn’t measure anything and would need  to estimate. In the end we toured each group and  I feel that we are ready to march on with written work back in class.

Quite a lot of challenging behaviour today so I sat with a group of children to discuss this issue whilst the rest had fun playing a final game. I think this was quite effective.
