A part of a whole, especially a comparatively small part.
Alright class, settle down now, let’s take a look today,
At a word that’s important, in a mathematical way!
We’re talking about ‘fraction,’ it's quite the treat,
A piece of something bigger, oh so neat!
The dictionary tells us, with a helpful plea,
"A part of a whole, especially a small one, you see!"
Think of a pizza, cut into slices bright,
Each slice is a fraction, a delicious sight!
One-half, one-quarter, let's not delay,
They show us portions in a simple way.
A fraction represents how much we take,
Compared to the whole, for goodness sake!
It’s like building blocks, of numbers true,
Showing parts of things – it’s up to you!
So remember this lesson, keep it clear and bold,
'Fraction' means a part, a story to be told.
Now, who can give me an example, quick and fast? Don’t hesitate, let’s make this knowledge last!
