  2. Create a Fraction Robot using this fun template. 
  3. Use hands-on manipulatives, such as blocks, counters, or pieces of fruit to represent unit fractions. They can partition these objects into equal parts to grasp the concept more concretely.
  4. Play a game of Roll and Cover a Unit Fraction
  5. Explore real-world scenarios where unit fractions are naturally present, such as sharing food, dividing a pizza, or measuring ingredients for a recipe. This helps students see the practical applications of unit fractions in everyday life.
  6. Get creative and write fraction stories together that involve unit fractions to contextualise their use and importance. Encourage students to identify instances of unit fractions within the narrative.
