Understanding fractions begins with the concept of equal parts, a fundamental topic for Year 2 students learning about numbers and fractions. A PowerPoint presentation on this subject helps pupils identify whole objects and discern whether they have been divided into equal or unequal parts. The resource uses simple visual examples, such as an apple split into two parts, to explain that for parts to be equal, they must be of the same size. The presentation progresses to more complex shapes like squares and groups of animals, asking students to determine if they are split into equal parts. Each slide encourages interaction by posing questions, which not only engages the children but also reinforces their learning.

Additionally, the PowerPoint provides scenarios where the students can apply their knowledge, such as splitting a shape into equal or unequal parts and dividing a group of objects, like frogs or birds, into equal groups. These activities are designed to strengthen the pupils' grasp of equality in division. The presentation also touches on the concept that there can be multiple ways to divide a shape into equal parts, even if the parts look different. To consolidate their understanding, students are prompted to answer questions on each slide and are given worksheets to practice splitting objects into equal and unequal parts, thus ensuring they can apply the concept in various contexts.
