Next, replace the pizzas with 4 and 8 slices with the pizzas with 3 and 6 slices. Students should be using the grouping stategies introduced to them. Next, the class will be introduced to the activity of munching fractions through demonstration on the board using the large pizza cut into 12 slices. Teacher can draw fraction cards and then have students take that fraction from the pizza on the board. Have students place the fraction cards in their pizza boxes.
Students take turns shaking the pizza box and drawing out fraction cards.
Have students check each other. After each student decides how much of their pizza to eat, have them write down the equivalent fractions and draw a pictorial representation of each fraction. Then it is the next students turn. Then students start over again. Remind students that they must keep drawing at the end of the activity until they find a fraction that is equivalent.
