We will begin the class with a fun book about cutting a cake in half. Then we will practice it. Using Google Slides, the children will see a representation of a fraction of a cake, and we will practice cutting it in half. Children will learn that when we multiply fractions that the number actually gets smaller. Sample problems: 1/2 of 1/4 of a cake. 1/2 of 1/8 of a cake. Or 1/2 * 1/4 Children will be asked to draw the picture on a piece of paper or whiteboard and solve the problem with me. They will be called on to tell their answer and explain it. Children should have a basic understanding of fractions.
Learning Goals
Children will learn that when you multiply a fraction the answer is smaller.
Children will learn to multiply a fraction by 1/2.
Other Details
Supply List
A whiteboard and marker, or a piece of paper and pencil.

Hi, I'm Rachel Capes! 🌟
I have an Early Childhood Degree and a Master's in Literacy. I spent 12 amazing years teaching 4th and 5th graders, and Kindergarten SPED in public schools. I even got to be a math and literacy coach!
Now, I homeschool my four wonderful kids. One is gifted, two are right where they should be, and one has a learning disability. This time at home has given me a deeper understanding of all learning styles.
I believe learning should be hands-on and fun! Kids should be excited about math and reading.
In math, we use manipulatives, drawing, and algorithms to make learning engaging. When we meet more than once, kids get to share how they solved problems and explain their thinking.
In reading, we dive into books, discuss vocabulary, explore literary elements, analyze characters and plots, and make predictions. Everyone gets to share their thoughts and opinions while respecting others'.
I love to read, be outdoors with my kids, and this year we're learning to garden together. 🌱
I also teach World History and Geography at an accredited homeschool group.
Let's make learning an adventure! 🎉📚✨
