Students Love Partitioning Shapes to show Fractional Pieces

Second Graders love using geoboards to partition shapes to show fractional parts.

Fair Shares

Equal Parts

Students created a pocket and were asked to create each shape given on their sheet on the geoboard. After creating the shapes, students partitioned the shapes into halves, fourths, or eights. Then they justified their answers by showing the equal parts on their shape cards. Students loved using the geoboards!

New Teachers on Campus can be so inspiring with their bright and clever ideas! This teacher had her students playing subtraction bowling outside. Each team had 10 cups and one tennis ball. As each student rolled, they had to decompose 10 and write down their equations.

Awesome First Year, First Grade Teacher!
