Room 13 has been learning about fractions. We followed a recipe using WHOLE and HALF cups to make Play dough.
Then we used the playdough to make balls. We cut them in half. Half means 2 equal shares.
Next, we made pizzas and cut them into quarters. Quarters means 4 equal shares.
Equal shares means the pieces are all the same.
We even halved and quartets sets of 4 smaller balls! We had to check each pile was the SAME.
