We made fairy bread and had to make halves, quarters, eighths, thirds and sixths (then we ate it of course).
Using multi link cubes we had to create structures that had 20 blocks with 1/2 blue, 1/4 green, 15 blocks with 1/3 red, 2/3 green etc.
We had to work out fractions of $ amounts such as 1/4 of $80
We looked at time and had to work out what is 1/5 of a minute and what is 4/12 of an hour. We had stopwatches that we had to try at stop at 12 seconds.
Fraction fish was another activity where they used circles and cut out fractions then arranged them into a fish mural.
We also looked at measurement and had to work out 1/5 of a metre, 4/5 of a metre and more. Lots of hands on fraction fun with some good thinking as well.
