In maths today, the children have been looking at equivalent fractions. We stared by shading different shapes to see visually how two different fractions, with different numerators and denominators, could actually be equal to one another.
We then moved onto the iPads where we accessed a maths site called ’Mathigon.’ Here, the children were able to move different sized fractions around and investigate which fractions were equivalent. The children really enjoyed using this interactive tool and were able to find some interesting equivalent fractions! The link is below for the children to use at home.
