KS2 Part Whole Models Worksheets

Our part-whole model worksheets cover the full KS2 range, with resources specifically designed for Year 3, Year 4, Year 5, and Year 6. Whilst children first encounter these models in KS1 with basic number bonds to 10 and 20, the concept develops considerably throughout KS2 as they apply it to larger numbers, decimals, fractions, and algebraic thinking.

In Year 3 and 4, students use part-whole models to support addition and subtraction of increasingly large numbers and to understand equivalent fractions. By Years 5 and 6, they apply these diagrams to more complex contexts including multi-step problems, finding missing values, and representing relationships in word problems. The visual approach remains valuable even as calculations become more sophisticated.

Every worksheet in this collection is provided as a downloadable PDF with a complete answer sheet included. The resources cover various question types, from filling in missing parts or wholes to drawing models for given number sentences and using models to solve word problems. Questions are differentiated to match the expectations for each year group, ensuring appropriate challenge.

The answer sheets show all solutions clearly, making marking efficient and enabling students to check their own work and identify misconceptions. This immediate feedback is valuable for both classroom use and home learning. The PDF format means worksheets can be printed as needed or completed digitally, providing flexibility for different teaching contexts and allowing targeted practise exactly when students need it.
