We have been learning about fractions. We know that the bigger the denominator (the number on the bottom) gets the smaller the pieces get. We have used play-dough, magnetic pizzas and fraction circles to learn about fractions.
Yesterday we split in groups and our challenge was to feed the animals in our zoos. We had to think about problems like how many blocks of food each animal gets so if elephants eat half a block of hay. How many blocks do we need for 5 elephants? It was fun. We were thinking about the numerator (number at the top).
