About Fractions

This week we have bean learning about fractions and we had to make a slideshow explaining about fractions. Here is my sideshow.

Using a Double Number Line

In my maths group we have been learning to use a double number line to show our working out to a fraction of a set problems. We had to make a DLO about our learning to use a double number line and Mrs Idle gave use three fractions of a set problems that we had to show the answer to using a double number line. I made up seven more of my own fractions of a set problems and you will see the equations in my DLO and the answers. I find it really easy to work out the answers and I think that is is easy to understand what we need to do.

Fraction Art

In room five we have been learning about fractions and we created some fraction art by cutting out a circle on coloured paper and then folding it into halves, quarters, eighths and sixteenths then after we folded we cut them out and made sea animals. My jellyfish is made of one half and six sixteenths. I used four halves, three quarters and twenty one sixteenths.
