Recently we started to learn about basic fractions, like halves and quarters. We know that when we split one whole thing into bits, they are fractions. It’s just like dividing! In the class we have broken food into halves and quarters and also numbers.

We made sandwiches, where we had to make 2 halves with the bread and cheese and then cut them again to make quarters.

With cubes, we made a big number and then either split it into 2 to half it, or split it into 4 to quarter it.

While we made our sandwiches, we also remembered all our good hygiene rules so we washed our hands carefully and kept them away from our faces, the desks etc until we had finished our food preparation.
