Dear Parents,
Yesterday, the children did an activity related to fractions. Each of them was given a slice of bread and asked to cut it into quarters. After doing so, the children were asked to 'prove' that all 4 pieces were equal. Then, they had a fun time spreading jam on the bread and eating it! A few of them even asked for second helpings! In all, they ate up 2 big loaves of bread and almost one jar of jam! It made me wonder what they ate during recess prior to the lesson!
