Fractions

 Today we took maths outside as it was such a lovely day. We are learning about fractions this week and started by thinking about halves. We worked with a partner to draw a shape and then we had to decide if we were going to half it properly or not. Our partner then had to check it and correct it we had done it wrong. 








 We then started thinking about halving numbers as well as shapes and discussed the fact you can only half even numbers. We worked with our partners again to half lots of numbers. 








When we came inside we had a go at being the teacher and saying numbers which everyone else had to half in their heads - we had to remember to only say even numbers. 




We then used a worksheet to make sure we knew what a half was and what it looked like. We know that for there to be two halves they have to be exactly the same.
