Exploring Fractions with Grade 2 Math

What are Fractions?

Fractions are a way to show part of a whole. Imagine you have a pizza that is cut into equal sized pieces, and some of those pieces are eaten. The remaining pieces are the fraction. It's like having a piece of cake and not eating it all.

In Grade 2 math, we will learn about basic fractions such as 1/2, 1/4, and 3/4. We will also learn how to identify and write these fractions correctly.

Why are Fractions Important?

Fractions are important in real-life situations. For example, when you're baking cookies and need to divide them into equal portions for your friends.

Understanding fractions will also help us with measurements and conversions in everyday life.
