Materials: - Coloured pencils/markers - Paper - Unit Fraction Colouring Sheets (available to print from the internet)
Task:
-
Distribute the Unit Fraction Colouring Sheets among the Primary 3 learners.
-
Ask the learners to look carefully at each picture.
-
Explain to them that their task is to colour the shapes and objects on the page that are made up of unit fractions.
-
If a shape has an area of 1/2, for example, they should colour it in half. Similarly, if a shape has an area of 1/3, they should colour it in thirds.
-
For each object, they should also circle the fractions of it which are equal to unit fractions (e.g. 1/2 of a pie, 1/6 of a stick of celery, etc).
-
Encourage the learners to use different colours to make their pages more interesting and help them to identify the fractions they are colouring.
-
When they have completed their colouring tasks, encourage them to share their work with the rest of the group.
