23/4 Fractions

Join Mrs Perry for another lesson on fractions. Please read below the Enabler Task and the Extender Task.

  • How many ways can you divide a square into quarters?

  • Trace or use a ruler to draw some squares (about 5cm x 5cm in size) in your book, show how many different ways you can divide the square into quarters. Remember, each of the four parts needs to be equal.


Enabler Task:

  • Show 2 ways that you can cut a square into quarters (4 equal parts).


Extender Task:

  • Challenge yourself with a more difficult shape eg a triangle, a kite, or an oval.

  • Have a go at explaining why some shapes were harder than others to divide into quarters.



  • Draw some shapes in your book. If you were to cut these shapes into two equal parts (halves), what might they look like?

  • Draw 5 shapes in your book and divide each shape into two equal parts (halves).

  • What would these shapes look like if they were cut into four equal parts (quarters)? Draw the same shapes cut into quarters.

  • What would these shapes look like if they were cut into eight equal parts (eighths)? Draw the same shapes cut into eighths.


Enabler Task: Draw 5 shapes in your book and divide each shape into two equal parts (halves).


Extender Task: Have a go at dividing some shapes into equal parts that are odd numbers. For example, 5 equal parts, 7 equal parts or 9 equal parts.
