Summary
You’ve got 60 spaces on a grid to create an amusement park, a house, a farm, or whatever you’d like. Divide it into seven pieces, order it by size, combine into two halves, and more in this fraction project.
- Students will pick a theme for their land and then divide it into seven differently-sized pieces.
- They find the fraction that represents each piece's size and then simply all of the fractions.
- They try to create two equal halves (or as close as they can get).
- Finally, they order their pieces from largest to smallest and explain *why* those pieces would be those sizes. Then, if you'd like, they can build the actual land!
