A fun, simple way to practice the " Divide shapes into equal parts " lesson on fractions using winter-themed differentiated activities. The concept of "equal parts" can be critical for kids as fractions can only be used to represent shapes that are divided into equal parts. In these worksheets, students will draw lines to divide shapes into two, three, and four equal parts.

This resource is differentiated into three levels and is perfect because it offers support for your below-level learners and above! These fraction worksheets are perfect to reach all your learners!

Note that you can provide the three levels to one student if you want him to grasp the concept of dividing shapes gradually.

WHAT DO YOU GET?

Included are 15 worksheets that are DIFFERENTIATED at 3 levels

• Level 1: Dividing shapes into equal parts by tracing the lines.
• Level 2: Dividing shapes into equal parts using reference points.
• Level 3: Dividing shapes into equal parts using only symmetry skills.

There are 5 pages in each level to work on:

• Page 1: Give three possible ways to divide each shape into two equal parts. The given shapes are squares, circles, and rhombus.
• Page 2: Give three possible ways to divide each shape into two equal parts. The given shapes are rectangles, triangles, and hexagons.
• Page 3: Divide different mixed shapes into halves.
• Page 4: Divide different mixed shapes into thirds.
• Page 5:Divide different mixed shapes into fourths.

The practice set includes different geometric shapes:

• Circle
• Square
• Rectangle
• Triangle
• Hexagon
• Star
• Pentagon
• Rhombus
• Heart
• Half circles
• parallelogram.

Students will learn the following skills:

• Understand that fractions always represent parts that are identical.
• Describe the shares using the words halves, thirds, fourths, and quarters.
• Understand that decomposing into more equal shares creates smaller shares.
• Make halves in different ways.
• Make halves, thirds, and fourths of different geometric shapes.

These worksheets were designed for first grade (Cute penguins are included as Visual Aids ), but can be used with 2nd/3rd-grade students who need additional fraction review.

Why you should use my resource:

I strive to create engaging and visually appealing educational products by incorporating thematic elements. The use of themed practice sheets not only makes learning enjoyable but also subtly integrates educational content. By presenting concepts in a fun and interactive manner, these worksheets captivate learners' interest without them realizing they are actively engaged in the learning process. This approach not only fosters a more enjoyable learning experience but also reinforces visual memory through varied and unique methods in each session.
