In Mathematics, we have been learning all about fractions. We learnt that fractions are a way to represent parts of a whole number. Imagine you have a pizza for dinner. That pizza can be cut into any number of pieces so that everyone can have a slice. Each piece is a part, or fraction, of the whole pizza. We began learning about fractions by making pizzas for very fussy clients.
Can you believe, that one client even ordered a pizza that was a sixth pepperoni, two sixths vegetarian and three sixths seafood!
Luckily, we managed to deliver all of our orders on time and the clients were very happy with their pizzas.
In another lesson, we made snowmen families which were also divided into different fractions. The children loved designing these and got quite competitive in regards to how many different ways they could split their snowmen.
Many of the children also managed to create a patterns according to a specific fraction of colours.
