On Tuesday, February 3rd, we had a special Valentine Fractions lesson. Since we don't get to the Fractions chapter in our Math book before ITBS, I just like to do a short lesson to introduce the kids to fractions and give them some general information. We talked about fractions and what the different parts are called (numerator and denominator). The kids got some practice drawing and naming different fractions, and then we completed a Valentine Cookie Fraction worksheet. After that, they got a page where they had to decorate a certain fraction of hearts (they look great up on our February bulletin board by the way!) Last but not least, the kids got to decorate and eat their own Valentine Heart Cookie! I always try to tell them that Math can be fun!!! Here are some fractions we came up with about our class:
4/19 of the students live in Alvord
3/19 of the students live in Inwood
7/19 of the students live in Larchwood
5/19 of the students live in Lester
10/19 of the students are boys
9/19 of the students are girls
3/19 of the students wear glasses
9/19 of the students wore blue jeans
