Yesterday we learned about adding and subtracting fractions.
It gets a bit tricky when we look at the symbols 1/4 1/2 1/3 etc.
So Mrs Parker cut some apples up into halves and then quarters.
We quickly learned that a half plus a half equals one whole.
We could see that 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 equals 1 whole.
We could see that if I have 6 quarters (or forths) of apple pieces, I actually have 1 and a half apples.
We even worked out that a half plus a forth is the same as having 3 quarters of apple pieces!
Then afterwards we all enjoyed the healthy snack of eating the apple quarters!
