As part of our learning about fractions we made fraction mice this week! First we had to trace around a circle and cut it out carefully and we had to fold it into eighths (eight equal parts). We needed half the circle for the mouse body, 2 eighths for the ears, 1 eighth for the head and 1 eighth for the cheese. We had to put it all together and add details like whiskers and a tail before colouring it in. We loved making them and think they look great!
Miss Baker, is that one of Ed Emberley's gorgeous mice from his fraction pie book?
