What do you know about fractions?
Make a comment about what you know about fractions. If you have a question about fractions then you could even ask that as well.
I look forward to seeing all your comments by the end of the week! Mrs N ;)
To Mrs Natusch I know that the top number is called the numerator. I know that the bottom number is called denominator. I know that if the denominator number is not the same you have to find the same denominator. From Katherine
Hi Room 7 I know that fractions are smaller parts of a whole. I also know that I can only eat a fraction of my birthday cake in one sitting! But what fraction?
To Mrs Paton Loren thinks you can eat 1/8 of your birthday cake in one sitting. Toby thinks 1/9 Ashton thinks 1/7 Courtney thinks 1/8 Megan thinks 1/6 No-one thinks you can eat 1/2! Or we hope not! (Ps - it might depend on how BIG the cake is) From Room 7
To Mrs Natusch I know that a fraction is part of a whole. I also know that the top number is called the nummerater and the bottom number is called the denoninater. From Loren
To Mrs Natusch I know that if a high number is at the bottom it is a small fraction so you get a smaller part. And a small number at the bottom is a big fraction like 1/2. From Megan :D
I know that a fraction is a half of a number. How many pieces of my birthday cake do you think I can eat in 2 sittings. How much can you eat in 1 sitting?
