This week in Maths, Year 1 have been learning about fractions, focusing on finding one half of a quantity. The children explored the concept that to find a half, they need to split a whole into two equal parts. Through practical activities and discussion, they developed their understanding that each of these equal groups represents one half of the whole. The class began to use mathematical language confidently, explaining how they knew that both parts must be equal to make a half. This has supported their growing understanding of fractions and equal sharing.
