Cupcake Fractions

So this week, we've been hitting hard core our author of the month, Laura Numeroff. (It's also Mo Willems, and I'll show y'all that stuff another time!)

We've been reading all her "circle books" this week as a basis for our reading, writing, and math lessons.
Yesterday we read:
(which actually goes really well with our phonics skill this week - hard and soft G and C)

And did cupcake fractions!!

(This is NOT in my Laura Numeroff pack)


They traced out the frosting and bottom, and then I used a hole puncher and punched out a LOT of holes...I had A TON left over because I'm SO horrible at estimating! haha!! Really... truly...just awful at estimating! lol


Anyway, if you'd like tracers and the paper to glue to the bottom, click HERE

I didn't have the tracers with me (I left them at school), so I quickly drew something up for y'all.

It's not perfect, but it'll get ya the tracers you need! ha! I left the writing page blank so you younger grades can just have the kiddos count the sprinkles - obviously you can have them put as many as you want them to!

If you download - please leave some lovin'! :)

Hope y'all had a Wonderful Wednesday!!

This will be great for a center next year. Will have students use either 20 or 25 "sprinkles" for their cupcake and convert the fractions to decimals and percents. Thanks for sharing!

I noticed that you are doing fractions right now and so am I. . . earlier I made these fraction cards that have been very helpful for my 2nd graders. Check them out to see if they would fit what your needs are.
