AO3: Understand operations on fractions, decimals, percentages, and integers.

This unit uses one of the digital learning objects, Mix Up 2, to support students as they investigate finding average percentage of the contents of differently sized containers. It is suitable for students working at stage 7-8 of the number framework. It includes problems and questions that can be used by the teacher when working with a group of students on the learning object, and ideas for independent student work.

These exercises and activities are for students to use independently of the teacher to practice number properties.

These exercises, activities and games are designed for students to use independently or in small groups to practise number properties. Some involve investigation (see Related Resources) and may become longer and more involved tasks with subsequent recording/reporting. Typically an exercise is a 10 to 15 minute independent activity. While the involve operating with number, the contexts for the number operations in these exercises are not formally in the curriculum, and are therefore most suitable as ‘broadening’ or extension work with more able students.

These exercises and activities are for students to use independently of the teacher to practice number and measurement skills.
