Our class is currently studying fractions. To help with students understand, we used chocolate chip cookies and red vine licorice to visualize equal parts and comparing fractions as a whole. Additionally, our class had a special opportunity to work in cooperative groups to mix ingredients and bake pans of brownies. After baking, we practiced cutting the brownie pans into equal parts and sharing the fractions with each classmate!
It has been such a fun (and tasty) week of math lessons!
