Grade 2 Memories

Tomorrow is the last day of school!  What were some of your memories of this year?  It was definitely not a regular school year, but there were some good times!  Remember the story I read at the beginning of the year called 'First Day Jitters'?  Today, I have a story by the same author called 'Last Day Blues'.  When you are done listening to the story, write down some of your memories!

PIZZA PANDAS

Fractions!

Imagine that you have a whole pizza and you divide it into 8 pieces..next, you ate 3 pieces.  How much of the whole pizza did you eat?  You ate 3/8!  This is a FRACTION!  Today, we will be learning about fractions and how we write them.  For fractions, there is always a numerator and denominator.  Watch this video to learn more:

Now, you are going to practice colouring in your own fractions!  The following circles are already divided up...you have to colour in the right amounts.  Here are 2 examples:

There are 5 parts in total, so it goes on the bottom (denominator).  3 is coloured it, so it goes on the top (numerator).

This one has the same denominator because it is still divided into 5 parts.  However, only 1 is coloured in, so 1 goes on the top (numerator).

Now try it for yourself:
