Its mission: to share and represent

Start with equal parts and fractions, then explore decimals in everyday life. Use folding, strips of paper and drawings. In the first years, prioritize concrete sharing; resume writing and decimals as they make sense.

Explore equal parts of the same whole. Change the painted parts and compare the fractions.
