Fraction fun

Date: 22nd Nov 2017 @ 7:13pm

We had fun this afternoon with fractions, we folded paper in different ways to show halves and quarters. Next we shared "sweets" between different numbers of children and used different grids, we even found a quarter of 48! Last but not least we had to choose whether we would rather eat half or a quarter of a chocolate bar and explain why. Then we could eat half but had to take half home. A big thank you to those parents and grandparents who were able to make it, a copy of notes and example questions will be coming home tomorrow in the homework bags.

We also had fun and did some really amazing thinking finding fractions of amounts on Tuesday. Our challenge was to find different ways of making half - we came up with some really clever ideas👍
