This week’s homework is practice makes perfect and is due on Thursday 14 March.

Use your knowledge of fractions and equal parts to complete this challenge. Remember, you need to shade 1/2 or 1/4 of the shape (which may be more than one square).

Year 1– You must think carefully about what a half should look like. The challenge is to find as many ways as possible to show 1/2 on the shape. A key phrase to remember is -there must be equal parts.

Year 2– You must think carefully about what one quarter should look like. The challenge is to find as many ways as possible to show 1/4 on the shape. A key phrase to remember is -there must be equal parts.
