&lt;mdoxml version=&quot;1.0&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;This collection offers teachers and children a way in to developing understadning of fractions. It builds from intuitive understandings of fractions commonly used everyday such as a half and a quarter through ideas of fractions as sharing, to representations of fractions, equivalent fractions, fractions of a whole and other quantities. Some more challenging problems involving fractions and
resources to support teaching are also included. Links are provided to relevant articles both from the website and wider sources relating to research in the area. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/mdoxml&gt;</indexXML>
