In an engaging PowerPoint presentation for Year 2 students, the concept of non-unit fractions is introduced as part of their mathematics curriculum on fractions. A fraction is explained as an equal part of a whole, with a visual representation of a circle divided into four equal parts to illustrate the point. Each part is described as a fraction of the whole. Students are taught that a fraction is written with two numbers: the top number (numerator) indicates how many parts we are talking about, while the bottom number (denominator) shows into how many equal parts the whole is divided.

The presentation distinguishes between unit and non-unit fractions. A unit fraction is defined as a fraction with a numerator of one, representing one equal part of the whole. In contrast, a non-unit fraction has a numerator greater than one, signifying multiple equal parts of the whole. Interactive activities are included, such as completing tables, sorting shapes into unit or non-unit fractions, finding the fraction represented by a shape, shading parts of a shape to represent a fraction, and identifying fractions from a group of circled objects. These exercises are designed to reinforce the understanding of fractions and help students differentiate between unit and non-unit fractions effectively.
