- Give your child a plate of four biscuits and ask them to count how many biscuits they have? Then ask your child to share the biscuits equally between two toys.
- Emphasise that if the toys are to have half each, the two halves must be the same number of biscuits.
- Ask what is half of four. Help to count it out as they share the four biscuits between the two empty plates. Half of four is two
- Repeat and share a plate of six biscuits. Once the toys have their biscuits say, half of six is three.
- Repeat until all the plates of biscuits have been halved.
- Each time, say aloud what half of each number is. Emphasise that the two halves must be the same.
- If confident, can your child try halving five biscuits?
