Fun with Fractions

This morning we have been thinking about what we already know about fractions before we start our new fractions topic.

 

Here are some of our fractions facts….

Angus – If there is a circle and you split it into 4 it is called quarters.

Jake – 3/3 means three thirds.  This is the whole thing.

Cole – If you cut something into fractions it has to be equal.

Keavie – If you have a circle and you draw a line down the middle and cover one side up you have half.

Brooke – Fractions have to be the same size.

Hannah – If you get a circle and don’t cut it at all that will be a whole which is 1.

Kali – Fractions have to be the same size.

Jordan – 1/1 is one whole. 2/2 is also a whole. 3/3 is also a whole……we could go on and on!

 

We made posters and books about what we already know about fractions and are going to display them on our wall.

 

We hope that when we are finished we will know lots more such as….

How many different types of fractions you can make out of a circle or square.

What the name of the numbers on the top and bottom are.

How to use decimal fractions.
