fractions with play dough
Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009
We had some feedback from a Year 1 and 2 teacher at Stockdale Road Primary School in Traralgon about how her students still love play dough. One girl in particular is constantly drawn to it.
She also has a fascination with traffic lights so was supplied with red, yellow and green play dough.
She made four sets of traffic lights …
… and went onto arrange them into four groups of three…
… and three groups of four.
We put out the same colours for our kindergarten children and they had a ball with it …
… doing their own take on the activity.
You can imagine the colour it ended up being after a very short time.
What a great colour mixing activity.
We love hearing what our colleagues in primary school are doing with play based learning!!
