Fractions in Year 2 (age 6–7)
In Year 2, your child will continue to learn about halves and quarters. They will also begin to think about thirds.
The key words for this section are equivalence , denominator , numerator , and number line .
What your child will learn
Recognise and use fractions ⅓, ¼, and ¾.
Your child will learn how to divide:
- Lengths (for example, a 12cm ribbon).
- Shapes (for example, a rectangle).
- Sets of objects (for example, a toy collection).
- Quantities (for example, 24 sweets).
Write simple fractions and recognise equivalences
Your child will use objects to find:
- Halves by sharing equally between two groups.
- Thirds by sharing equally between three groups.
- Quarters by sharing equally between four groups.
They will also be expected to write out fractions in simple calculations. This will help them to understand the connection between fractions and division. For example:
of 6 = 3 6 ÷ 2 = 3 of 12 = 4 12 ÷ 3 = 4
How to help at home
There are lots of everyday ways you can help your child to understand fractions. Here are just a few ideas.
1. Exploring fractions of quantities
Try sharing objects equally to find fractions of amounts. You could do this by using things around the house – for example, grapes, buttons, beads, or pieces of dried pasta… the options are endless!
- Halves . Find 12 of the same type of object and ask your child to find half. Ask them how many are in each group and help them see that half of 12 is 6 because there are 6 objects in each group.
- Quarters . Once you’ve explored halves, you could find a quarter of the 12 objects. Show your child that you can do this by sharing the objects into four equal groups or by finding half and then half again.
- Thirds . Now see if your child can share the objects into three equal groups. How many are in each group? Try finding three quarters and then two thirds of the 12 objects.
See if your child understands that two quarters is equivalent to one half, and that four quarters is equivalent to the whole. Help them understand that finding a half is equivalent to dividing by 2, finding a quarter is equivalent to dividing by 4, and finding a third is equivalent to dividing by 3.
2. Fractions of shapes
If your child enjoys drawing and crafts, use paper, pens, and scissors to show them how fractions work. Together, draw simple shapes like squares, triangles, or circles. You will need to ensure they are quite even and exact – drawing around things can help with this.
Cut out the shapes and then fold them to find halves, thirds, and quarters of the shapes. Can the shape be folded into two, three, or four equal parts? There are lots of ways you can use these shapes to explore fractions. For example:
Show your child a square and ask them how they would find half of the shape. They may fold the shape in half to see if there are two equal parts. Ask them to show you one half. What shape is the half? Investigate how many different ways a shape can be folded in half. For instance, you could fold a square diagonally to create triangular shapes. Find different ways to make a quarter of a shape or a third of a shape.
3. Writing fractions
Help your child start writing fractions using mathematical symbols. The number at the bottom is called the denominator and the number at the top is called the numerator . The denominator tells us how many equal parts we are dividing into. The numerator tells us how many of the equal parts we are looking for.
You could play a game where children match the written fraction to an image of the fraction. For example:
![year 2 homework fractions year 2 homework fractions](https://home.oxfordowl.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/048_FractionsY2_OneQuarter-1.png)
4. Fractions as numbers in their own right
Your child needs to understand that a fraction is also a number in its own right. You can help your child with this concept using number lines.
You could show your child a number line as shown below. Ask them to show where a half would go on the number line. Help them to understand that a half is directly in the middle of 0 and 1.
![title= year 2 homework fractions](https://owlhomestage.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/016_FractionsYr2_3_nline1.png)
Similarly, your child will need to be able to find a quarter, three-quarters and a third on a number line, as shown below:
![title= year 2 homework fractions](https://owlhomestage.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/017_FractionsYr2_nline2.png)
5. Counting in fractional steps
Encourage your child to begin counting in halves, quarters, and thirds using objects and number lines to help. For example, cut pieces of fruit into three equal pieces and count in thirds: ⅓, ⅔, 1, 1 ⅓, 1 ⅔, and so on.
This will reinforce the idea that fractions are numbers, and will show how they can add up to more than one. Number lines and images can also represent fractions and help you count in thirds. For example:

Fraction Worksheets for Year 2 (age 6-7)
Children should come into Year 2 (age 6-7) being able to recognise halves and quarters and knowing that a half is one of two equal parts of an object, shape or quantity and a quarter is one of four equal parts.
In Year 2 this knowledge is developed to include recognising one third, two thirds, two quarters and three quarters of shapes, sets of objects, quantities and lengths.
Finding fractions of shapes can involve shading in or cutting out certain amounts of a shape e.g. shading two thirds of a rectangle. The important concept here is that the fractions must be of equal size.
Finding fractions of sets of objects is usually done on a practical basis e.g. take 12 bricks and sort them into three equal piles – each pile is one third of the total number of bricks. This can also be done pictorially and strengthens the link between finding fractions and division.
Finding fractions of quantities means finding a fraction of a number e.g. find a third of 6. This is a development from using shapes and objects and should only be done when children are confident with working with objects to find fractions.
A key aspect of fractions is recognising equivalence. Put simply this is the understanding that a half is equivalent to, or the same as two quarters, and that four quarters is equivalent to one whole one.
Another important aspect of work with fractions in Year 2 is counting in halves and quarters.
By the end of the year children should be familiar with terms such as part, fraction, three quarters, one third and two thirds and be able to write these fractions in both words and numbers.
Whilst we recommend that much of the fractions work in Year 2 should be practical in nature we have plenty of written material to reinforce the practical work. Why not take a look now?
Once all this has been achieved children will be ready to move onto Year 3 work when much more is done on equivalent fractions, comparing fractions and even adding and subtracting simple fractions.

Year 2: Fractions
New Maths Curriculum (2014): Year 2 objectives.
Pupils should use additional fractions as operators on discrete and continuous quantities by solving problems using shapes, objects and quantities. They connect unit fractions to equal sharing and grouping, to numbers when they can be calculated, and to measures, finding fractions of lengths, quantity, a set of objects or shapes. They meet 3/4 as the first example of a non-unit fraction.
Pupils should count in fractions up to 10, starting from any number and using the 1/2 and 2/4 equivalence on the number line (e.g. 11/4, 12/4 , (or 11/2), 13/4, 2). This reinforces the concept of fractions as numbers and that they can add up to more than one.
Recognise, find, name and write fractions 1/3, 1/4, 2/4 and 3/4 of a length, shape, set of objects or quantity
Write simple fractions e.g. 1/2 of 6 = 3 and recognise the equivalence of two quarters and one half.

Year 2 Maths Worksheets for improving mental maths skills, arithmetic and fluency: Fluent in Five
We recommend every primary school child starts their day with Fluent in Five. It’s 5-10 minutes of daily arithmetic questions and is available for every primary school year group. In Year 2 children have 3 questions per day to answer. They are given prompts of concrete or pictorial resources (such as counters or number lines) they could use to help them solve the question presented to them. You’d be amazed at how quickly young people will build their number confidence with this resource.
