Third graders recently had a successful and joyful fraction
museum. After being tasked with bringing
in something that represents a fraction as homework, each student curated his
or her own fraction exhibit. There was a
wide range of exhibits, from stuffed animals, to sports equipment, toys and
candles. After creating a sign to show
the fraction represented in their museum contribution, students enjoyed seeing
what all of their friends in both classes had brought in for the museum.
As they explored the various exhibits, each student practiced determining if each fraction was equal to, less
than, or greater than a half. This has helped us transition into a deeper look
at equivalent fractions.
