You're going to learn about fractions — when something is split into equal parts. The two main fractions in this test are halves (two equal parts) and quarters (four equal parts).

Read each question carefully. Look at any pictures — they'll help you see the answer.

The warm-up fractions test for Year 1. Covers the foundation: recognising a half as one of two equal parts and a quarter as one of four equal parts of shapes and small quantities of objects.

The critical idea at this stage is "equal parts" — children often think any two parts of a shape make halves. The questions probe this misconception directly.

Year 1 fractions warm-up. Coverage: definition of "half" and "quarter" (4 questions), identifying halved/quartered shapes (4 questions), halves of small even quantities (2 questions), quarters of small quantities (2 questions).

Common misconceptions: believing any partition into 2 parts = half; conflating "a quarter" with "any small part"; not recognising halves/quarters of non-symmetric shapes.

Auto-marked with explanations. Most useful: re-discussing wrong answers using real food (cutting an apple, sharing biscuits) — fractions are best learned through doing.
