- The activity has also helped them understand the concept of fraction as a part of a whole.
Continued development can be encouraged by providing more opportunities for hands-on fraction activities, such as baking or cooking where the child can measure ingredients and work with fractions in a practical way. Additionally, introducing fraction games or manipulatives like fraction tiles or fraction bars can further reinforce their understanding of fractions.
