IT'S ALL ABOUT FRACTIONS!

 For the next few weeks, we are going to learn all about FRACTIONS. Today we had a go at a lot of different activities to introduce us to fractions.

We talk about fractions every day, particularly about halves and quarters or fourths. Did you know that fractions of the whole have to be exactly the same size? If we say we want one half of something, we have to cut it into equal size pieces or it is not fair. Fractions have to be fair! There is no such thing as the "bigger half"!

The best activity was working with Miss Erine. We made fairy bread and had to share our sandwich with a friend. sharing between the 2 of us meant we had to halve our bread! 

We also had to trace around shapes and figure out how to cut them into halves.
