Use this resource to practise representing half of objects and lengths.

 

This worksheet has a fun Hansel and Gretel theme with 3 different halves activities for students to complete.

  To complete this worksheet, students need to:

1. Show how they would cut different types of food so that Hansel and Gretel get half each. They then colour in one half of each piece of food.
2. Show that ‘half’ can be used to describe length by marking the halfway point of Hansel and Gretel’s walk to the witch’s house.
3. Use colours and patterns to demonstrate what half of a collection looks like.

 

Two differentiated levels of the activity are included, with the extension version also asking students to identify a halfway point in time.

 

No prep necessary, just print and go!

 

This resource is a great accompaniment to the Halves, Quarters & Eighths Task Card PACKAGE.
