The keen mathematicians in Scott's maths group are learning about fractions. We have been investigating the symbols for 1/2 , 1/3, and 1/4 and putting them into real life contexts.
On Tuesday we made play dough together that we will use to create pizzas, cookies, and other magical shapes to help us learn about fractions.
We used our our character strengths of team work and perseverance. We needed teamwork to help us follow the receipe and perseverance when the kneading became hard work or when mixing the ingredients.
On Wednesday we used the play dough to make meatballs and sausages. We invited friends to enjoy our dinner so needed to separate our dishes into even amounts. We even managed to divide our play dough delights into tenths !
