What to do

  • Can you help me share my 20 green grapes? Use your 20 beads to hep me work out how many grapes we will each get?

Watch the video to see what to do next.

What to do

  • Put the strawberries (pegs) and grapes (beads) altogether again in one bowl, spread out your 5 plates and share them out again. Remember that now we only have 10 strawberries and 20 grapes to share.

    • How many will we each get now?

    • Is it an equal or fair share? How do you know?

    • Tell someone, if you can, how you know that this is an equal share.
