Fractions Farewell Party for Miss Howarth

Yesterday we gave Miss Howarth a
Farewell Party using fractions as our theme.
While the pizzas were cooking we sang some fraction songs which help us understand fractions

Our fractions were divided up into eights so we
could all have a piece.

Our gluten free bagel options were
divided into halves.

After playing Fraction Loopy and Fly Swat
Fractions, we divided into teams and had
a jigsaw puzzle race.

Mrs Winton was impressed with
how well we worked as a team.

This team had the biggest challenge and never
gave up. Their perseverance paid off in the end. 

Finished!

There were 30 jellies. What fraction
were orange?

8/30ths!

Then the green jellies were calculated.

And then it was time to share our
Fraction Party Food.

A great time was had by all and
it was fun bringing fractions alive in Room 10.
Thanks Miss Howarth for teaching us.

This party was made possible by
filling up our marble jar
over the last 5 weeks. We get marbles in the jar
by working  hard and
doing the right thing. Well Done Room 10! :)
