ACARA has increased the focus on fractions in the primary years of the Australian Curriculum: Mathematics 9.0 (ACM). This has meant that other topics (not previously included in the curriculum) appear now as necessary pre-requisites in the primary grades. For example, to be completely confident with finding equivalent fractions students will learn technqiues involving HCF, LCM, and divisibility rules. This is important due to the inclusion of fractions with unrelated denominators in primary years. This session will describe the changes and how they can be taught with meaning using concrete and visual materials.
