This set includes colour-coded, magnetic segments that visually represent fractions of a whole circle. The segments vary in size and can be combined to form a complete circle, making it easier for students to comprehend parts-to-whole relationships, equivalence, and fraction comparisons. These magnetic pieces can be used on any magnetic surface, providing versatility for both classroom and home learning environments. Ideal for children in Years 2-3, this set offers an engaging way to learn about fractions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEducational Benefits:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHelps students visually understand fractions and their relationship to a whole, aiding in concept retention.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEncourages the development of fraction comparison and equivalence skills through hands-on manipulation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupports kinaesthetic and visual learners by providing a tactile, interactive experience with fractions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePromotes problem-solving and critical thinking as students experiment with creating and comparing fractions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClassroom Ideas:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUse the segments to help students visualise fractions, starting with dividing a whole circle into halves, quarters, and eighths.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHave students compare different fractions by physically rearranging the segments to determine which is larger or smaller.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChallenge students to create equivalent fractions using the segments, such as demonstrating how two halves equal one whole.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMake fraction comparisons and equivalence activities into a fun game where students match segments to form a whole or find equivalent fractions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEncourage collaborative learning by dividing students into groups to solve fraction problems together using the segments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInformation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAges: Suitable for children in Years 2-3.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeasurements: Set includes multiple colour-coded segments of various sizes that form a whole circle when combined.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Modern Teaching Aids NZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42238431494257,"sku":"ERJL611","price":29.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/7633\/6753\/files\/erjl611_fraction-segments_v2_1.webp?v=1760001066","url":"https:\/\/teaching.co.nz\/products\/fraction-segments-visual-learning-tools-set-of-pieces","provider":"Modern Teaching Aids NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
