Using Maths in a practical way
We have been learning how to half and quarter different numbers mentally as part of our Maths work. As we have become so good at this, Mrs Dixon set us a challenge.
This is how one group quartered each ingredient; they halved the amount and then halved it again
We had a recipe to make Pudsey Bear biscuits for the whole of our year group but she had made it for double or quadruple the amount of people. We worked in our groups to half or quarter the ingredients and then had to follow the instructions to make them.
