What is a fraction?

What is a fraction?

Well over the last week the children have been learning about fractions to try and answer that very question. They have cut up fruit into halves and quarters and also explored how to find a half, quarter of different shapes and even of a bar of chocolate! Using this new knowledge they have been able to fill a variety of containers using the vocabulary full, half full, nearly full,  empty and quarter full. Maybe you could explore fractions at home by making potions with different household items!

What a lot of new knowledge they have gained over the last week! Well done Duxbury Class
