Fractions

We are learning about fractions.  Today we made fairy bread to show how you you can make equal shares of a piece of bread.  We know that both sides should be the same size so we cut down the middle to make two halves.  To make four quarters we cut it in half again.

We buttered our bread.
Next we sprinkled on hundreds and thousands.
We cut the bread in the middle to make two halves.
Two children could each have a half.
It was then cut into quarters.
They tasted yummy!
