--- title: "Fractions" url: "https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/blog/2017-11-09-17-30-25-fractions" school: "Gillibrand Primary School" --- # Fractions 9 November 2017 [Class of 2015](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/blog/category/class-of-2015) This week we have been learning about fractions. We started by making a 1/2 and a 1/4 line on two plates. We then used fractions cards to split Smarties into halves and quarters. We discussed whether we would like to eat half or a quarter of the sweets. Next week we will be learning how to write fractions when calculating halves, quarters and thirds of quantities of objects. ### Year 2 fractions
