Teacher Activity Pupil Activity Class,

Do you love to eat chocolates? Yes Ma’am

Who wants to eat a chocolate? We’d love to, Ma’am.
I have here a bar of chocolate and I am going to
Divide it equally into four parts. (Slice).
So I have now 4 slices or 4/4 of chocolate.
(Give the 2/4 of the apple to two pupils, 1/4 each).
So I have given Mario ¼ of the chocolate and another ¼
To Rowena.
How much chocolate have I given all in all and how?
2/4 given much is left?
 2/4 left Yes Very Good! I sliced the chocolate into
Four equal parts so we get 4/4 or 1 of course and
I gave Mario and Rowena ¼ each of the chocolate.
So ¼ + ¼, we get 2/4 or ½ and the parts that is left
For me is also 2/4 0r ½. If we are going to add the
Parts of apple that I have given to Mario and Rowena
And the parts left for me, how much will it be all in all?
4/4 or 1
Now class,
Do you have any idea of what?
Will be our topic for today? Adding and subtracting of fraction

Exactly class.
Today, we will be discussing how to add and subtract fractions.
And I want you to meet the following objectives which are to:
Add and subtract fractions with the same denominators
