Fractions of a Number

We started by sharing 24 'cookies' between two teddies - they got half each. 1/2 of 24 was 12.
Next we shared 24 cookies between four teddies - they got a quarter each. 1/4 of 24 was 6.
Then we shared 24 cookies between eight teddies - they got one-eighth each. 1/8 of 24 was 3.


Then the children had a turn with their own teddies. 

Great work, kids!
