We have been working on fractions, dividing shapes into 1/2's and 1/4's. Here is an easy activity that you can practice at home. Have your kiddo draw a shape (circle, square, rectangle, etc) and then draw a line to cut it in 1/2..and then another to cut it into 1/4's. You could use a dry-erase board, paper, back of the junk mail envelope...or, if you are feeling extra creative...this would be a fun activity to use a pencil/stick/finger and draw it in sand. The pictures below are when the kids were practicing this one afternoon before Math. They were excited to watch their neighbors and see that there is more than one way to cut a shape into 1/2's or 1/4's.
