Four pages of Year 3 maths fractions practice. Pupils write the fraction of a chocolate bar that is shaded, find fractions of groups like the green apples in a bunch, add and subtract fractions such as 2/8 + 3/8, then compare fractions using symbols with picture support. Answer keys are provided through the sheet. Aligned to the England National Curriculum Year 3 fractions objectives, from tenths to comparing.
Number — fractions
“Count up and down in tenths; recognise that tenths arise from dividing an object into 10 equal parts and in dividing one-digit numbers or quantities by 10”
The chocolate bar task shows tenths as 10 equal parts of one object.
Number — fractions
“Add and subtract fractions with the same denominator within one whole [for example, 5/7 + 1/7 = 6/7]”
Four same-denominator calculations practise this directly.
Number — fractions
“Compare and order unit fractions, and fractions with the same denominators”
The final section compares fractions with visual support.
Count the shaded pieces of a 10-piece chocolate bar and write the fraction.
Find fractions of pictured sets, such as what fraction of the apples are green.
Four calculations with the same denominator, like 2/8 + 3/8 and 5/7 - 1/7.
Compare pairs such as 1/4 and 3/4 with symbols, supported by pictures.
Topic recap
The four sections revisit the main fraction skills in one sitting.
Homework
Picture support means most pupils can complete it without help.
Assessment check
Use mid-unit to spot which of the four skills needs reteaching.
