Word Fractions
Students use the consonants and vowels in their name (and other words) to explore a fraction of a collection.
E.g the total number of letters in Kate is 4. Kate has 2 vowels ( a and e) this means 2/4 or 1/2 are vowels.
You can link to spelling or inquiry words. Students demonstrate their fraction by drawing an area model or visual representation of their fraction.
