This week in Maths we have been learning about Fractions, particularly equivalent fractions. Some equivalent fractions we learned are: one half is the same as two quarters, one third is the same as two sixths and one fifth is the same as two tenths.
We had great fun making pizzas to show equivalent fractions.
“I enjoyed making pizzas for fractions – they looked so delicious when they were cooked.” – Ryan
“I had fun making the pizzas, it helped me to learn more about fractions.” – Innaya
This week has been very busy in Primary 4/5. Read some of our comments to see what we have been up to.
“I enjoyed starting our new reading book – Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. My favourite part so far has been learning about the characters.” – Ross
“This week I enjoyed making fractions with pancakes in Maths. I enjoyed this because we got to eat them at the end and they were very tasty!” – Kieran
