Divide Shapes into Equal Shares: how to help at home or in class
Hand your child paper rectangles and ask them to fold one into halves, then fold again to make fourths. Open it, trace the creases and cut the pieces apart. Stack them to check that every share matches exactly. Circles are trickiest, so draw those with a pencil first. When shares are checked by stacking rather than guessing, coloring a named share is a good next step.
