The Concept-Based Learning | Fractions course, helps pupils explore the numbers that exists between numbers. This course will make explicit the idea of one whole in a variety of contexts, building on the concept and pupils’ prior innate knowledge of discreet and continuous measurement. For instance, one whole apple and a basket full of apples both constitute one whole. Also a jug full of apple juice this too is one whole, which leads to yet another concept of measurements.
This course is ideal for students who want to deepen their understanding of the concept of fractions.
This course is especially suitable for pupils studying towards achieving grades 3, 4 and 5 in Maths GCSE.
