Glitch Detectives Workbook and Parent Companion on Fractions
The Fraction Parent Companion + Workbook: Level One
A Neuroinclusive, Reasoning-First Fractions Bundle for Level 1
Does your child know how to calculate but struggle to explain what a fraction actually means?
Fractions can be confusing when children memorise rules without understanding the ideas behind them.
The Glitch Detectives Fractions Bundle helps you change that.
This bundle combines a practical parent guide with a mission-based workbook to help your child build fraction understanding through visual examples, real-world activities, and mistake-based learning.
What's Included?
1. The Fraction Parent Companion
An approximately 60-page guide that helps you support your child's learning with clear explanations, conversation prompts, common misconceptions, and simple activities you can try at home.
2. Glitch Detectives Workbook: Level One
A printable workbook where your child joins ZED-4, our slightly unreliable maths robot, to investigate fraction problems, detect mistakes, repair incorrect reasoning, and explain their thinking.
What Will Your Child Learn?
Your child will explore equal parts, halves and quarters, naming fractions, equivalent fractions, simplifying fractions, comparing fractions, number lines, and fractions of a group.
Every concept builds gradually, helping children understand what fractions mean before rushing into complicated procedures.
Designed for Different Learners
With visual examples, guided prompts, small learning steps, and real-world connections, Glitch Detectives encourages children to explore maths at their own pace.
Instead of simply asking, “What's the answer?”, we encourage children to ask:
“Does this make sense? How do I know?”
Who Is This Bundle For?
Parents of children in Grades 1–3 or higher who want to:
- Build understanding instead of relying on memorisation.
- Help their child feel more confident exploring fractions.
- Make maths more visual, practical, and engaging.
- Encourage reasoning, curiosity, and independent thinking.
Two resources. One shared goal: understanding before memorising.
Let your child investigate, detect, repair, and explain, one fraction at a time.
Welcome to maths through the eyes of a detective.
