Hershey's Fraction Day!

You may see the pictures posted below and wonder, why in the world are my children scarfing on chocolate in math class?!?!?!?!

Because those blasted Hershey folks wrote this book that does a fabulous job of introducing fractions, using a Hershey milk chocolate bar. :)

So today?  We played with our food!  I mean... fractions!  Yea, that's right! :)

Absolutely no homework tonight, but ask your children about 1/3 of their chocolate, or 10/12 or 12/12 or 6/12!!

I hope you enjoy the pictures below!
