Equal parts are when we split something into pieces that are all the same size. It’s like sharing cookies with your friends—everyone gets an equal bite so no one feels left out!
First comes a whole, then it breaks apart,
Into equal slices, each just as smart!
Look at the shape and check it twice,
Are the pieces fair? That’s our nice advice.
Here’s how you can spot equal parts:
1️⃣ Find the big shape or yummy treat.
2️⃣ See if it’s cut into matching bits.
3️⃣ Count the parts to make sure they fit!
Imagine a pizza sliced into 4 parts.
If every slice is the same size, hooray for math smarts!
But if one slice is bigger than the rest,
Those aren’t equal parts—they’ve failed the test.
Picture this: 🍕 = 🍕 = 🍕 = 🍕
All slices match, oh what a delight!
Now try again with half a pie,
Two halves make one—it’s easy as pie!
- Use real-life objects like fruits, cakes, or paper cutouts to show equal parts.
- Sing songs about dividing things equally (e.g., “One for me, one for you…”).
- Play games where kids sort pictures of shapes into “equal” and “not equal.”
- Celebrate their efforts with high-fives and cheers—they’ll love learning more!
