Develop understanding of fractions as equal parts by exploring fifths through hands-on measurement. Students roll a clay bar to a length that is a multiple of 5, divide it into five equal parts, and measure each section to find 1/5, ⅖, 3/5 and 4/5. This activity supports conceptual understanding of fractions as lengths and equal shares.
What’s included:
6 coloured playdough fraction mats for finding fifths
Black & White version also included
