Year 3 investigate fractions with Smarties!

As part of Year 3’s new maths topic on fractions, today they looked at parts of a whole. Starting with pizzas and cakes, they swiftly moved on to the fun bit of sorting out their tubes of smarties and working out the fractions of the different colours.

“First we have to work out the denominator so we need to count all the smarties in the tube,” -Safiyya Al-Azami

“The numerator means we need to count one of the colours,” – Agata Deptuch.

Keep up the great work Year 3!
