Fractions Fun

We have started Term 3 with a real buzz... In Maths we have been learning how to read and write fractions of a set.

Did you know that if I cut a pizza in half, I would have 2 pieces?

Did you know that if I cut a sandwich into 4, I would be cutting it into quarters?

Did you know that when I have to share my cake with 2 of my friends, I have to cut it into thirds?

Room 6 even got to try out these fractions by making fairy bread and practicing how to make 1/2 and 1/4.

Try it at home and see what other fractions you can make. How many people in your house? How many pieces will you need to cut something in to?

If you need an expert, come and ask one of our Fractions Experts in Room 6.
