This is a sheet that I used for homework with my high-ability Year 3 cohort. It involves the children using maths language or talk for maths sentence starters to explain their reasoning as to whether questions, such as the following, are true or false. When you simplify 3/9, the new fraction is 1.5/4.5. The numerator is the total number of parts. Children can choose which questions they answer, giving them more ownership and allowing for self-differentiation. LO: To explain answers with mathematical evidence.
