Year 5 fractions updates The new primary maths programme of study really lays emphasis on teaching fractions; a topic which has always proved tricky in the past. In year 5 it is expected that children will be taught to: •    Compare fractions whose denominators are all multiples of the same number •    Find equivalent fractions •    Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions and vice versa •    Add and subtract fractions •    Multiply proper fractions by whole numbers •    Read and write decimal numbers as fractions •    They will also be expected to recognise percentages and solve simple percentage problems. This is a huge task, but luckily with over 120 pages of work our fraction worksheets meet all these targets and we have also updated many of the worksheets using better fonts and more friendly layout.
