Recognise and use the equivalences between simple fractions, decimals and percentages [F6, F11]
Maths Resource Description
The educational material from Buzzard Publishing, taken from CanDoSATs KS2, aims to help Year 6 students understand and apply the equivalences between simple fractions, decimals, and percentages. The exercises are designed to reinforce the connections between these different numerical representations, which are fundamental concepts in the mathematics curriculum. By engaging with these problems, students learn to convert fractions to decimals and percentages, and vice versa, enhancing their numerical fluency and preparing them for more complex mathematical challenges.
The resource includes a variety of activities, such as matching exercises, calculations, and problem-solving tasks that require the application of the learned equivalences. Students are encouraged to use critical thinking and reasoning to complete the exercises, which cover different levels of difficulty to cater to various learning needs. Through consistent practice, students become more confident in their ability to recognise and use these equivalences, which is not only crucial for their SATs but also for their overall mathematical competence.
