Tasks have been carefully created to meet the common core standards and Australian curriculum outcomes for this grade level and will build proficiency, fluency, and confidence in allowing students to practice and solving problems involving fractions. This, in turn, will have a positive effect on their success in other mathematical strands and overall enjoyment of mathematics.
How this Pack Works:
Each activity has a task card that can be used by the teacher, parent helper or read by the students themselves (2 versions of each task card is included: an A4 poster and an A5 version that can be folded in half to create a standing sign). On every A4 poster, there is a list of resources needed for the task. Activities can be used and differentiated for the whole class, used as components of numeracy rotations or intervention activities in small groups to support or extend students.
We have also included two pages for teachers to use as a guide to differentiate each task to cater for the individual learners in your classroom.
Skills covered:
★ Matching halves of pictures & shapes
★ Recognising & identifying halves of different shapes
★ Dividing shapes in half
★ Recognising and sorting wholes, halves and quarters of shapes
★ Solving problems

No further teacher prep needed, simply print and use!

Schools can be super inspiring and fun or they can be a total downer (trust us, we have seen it all in our teaching careers). It is so important that teachers come to work every day feeling happy and supported because it is crucial for the well-being and overall vibe of the staff.
When your team at work feel appreciated and enjoys being part of the staff team, that energy reflects in the amazing experiences we create for our students.
Today, we share some of our favourite ways to show teachers and colleagues that you care. We chat about:
Building a school culture that values each other and teacher well-being is a key to success. Not only will teachers feel supported and valued, but the culture will also rub off on the students in our care.
Before you head off, please share this episode with another teacher. Implementing these ideas is always so much more fun when you have a partner in crime.
Rainbows ahead,
Ashleigh and Alisha
