Twelve circles, rectangles, squares and triangles, each cut into two, three or four parts. Half of them are cut into equal parts and half are not. Children look closely and colour the Yes box if every part is the same size, or the No box if one part is bigger. It is the idea every fraction is built on: one half means one of two equal parts, not just one of two pieces.
