Fun with Fractions



Fair shares, equal parts, and fractions have been on the minds of my first graders lately as we have been practicing with these during the math portion of our day for the past couple of weeks. We wanted to share just a few of the activities we have been using to deepen our understanding, and to give you an update of what we've been up to in math lately!


The boys and girls created some cute fraction pictures and wrote about the fractions that were used to make them.










Everyone had fun playing matching or sorting type games with a partner or in a small group.







Individual seat work was also used for a practice activity.

Of course, we continue to practice problem solving, addition/subtraction strategies, math facts, telling time, and much more each day through our daily math journal activities, practice, and timed math fact tests.  Next, we will be learning more about measurement!
