The other day we cut different shapes in half but today we learnt to find the fraction of a set. We used counters.
Did you know that the top number of a fraction tells you how many you have and the bottom number tells you how many there are altogether.
This song explains it well...
Look what these clever kids can do!
They can find fractions of a set!
Ways to help at home:
You can talk to us about fractions - ask us if we'd like HALF and apple, or maybe just a QUARTER of an apple.
When we set the table ask us how many spoons there are out of how many utensils there are altogether.
Try and use fractions as part of our everyday language. Telling the time is great - It's QUARTER past etc
