Shapes and Slices

Worksheet Description

This worksheet helps students recognize and calculate fractions using everyday shapes such as circles, squares, and pizzas. Students are asked to determine what fraction of a shape is shaded or covered by identifying sections in different visuals. The exercises range from a circle with a red portion, a green-shaded square, to a pizza with specific toppings, challenging students to select the correct fraction from multiple-choice options. This makes the concept of fractions relatable by using familiar objects.

By working through this worksheet, students enhance their ability to interpret fractions through visual examples. The diverse shapes encourage understanding of how fractions apply to different geometric figures. This helps improve number sense and builds confidence in identifying parts of a whole. Students also develop critical thinking as they must analyze each image carefully to deduce the correct answer.
