Fractions

Our focus in Math this week is fractions.  Third graders are expected to be able to identify fractions as being a fractional part of one whole (example: 3/4 of a circle), or as a fractional part of a set (example: 2/3 of the pencils are sharpened). 
We have done several fun activities this week!  We started Monday with a Readers' Theater about fractions.  Click here to view the video of our play.  Tuesday we used colored goldfish to model fractional parts of a set.  Wednesday we had some fun doing "Beary Colorful Fractions," and today is going to be a mean game of Fraction Bingo! 
I think through these great activities we are mastering our fraction skills!
