This homework activity is designed to help any school design and construct a special non-fiction book for their school. Every child is given a section to complete.
The children are also expected to design an appropriate front cover for the book.
My students loved this activity and the book was used as the school’s prospectus! Prospective parents and students love it too (as do school inspectors).
Differentiation can be determined by outcome and support.

This activity sheet should only be used once the children know the following:
.
1.) How to separate counting cubes into equal groups (I use plastic cups for the groups. Alternatively you could use grouping hoops).
2.) How to draw balls on a sheet of paper and separate them into equal groups. If you are asking a child to separate halves, they should draw the balls in groups of 2 (in an array formation) then separate into 2 equal groups. If you are asking a child to separate quarters, they should draw the balls in groups of 4 (in an array formation) then separate into 4 equal groups. If you are asking a child to separate thirds, they should draw the balls in groups of 3 (in an array formation) then separate into 3 equal groups etc.
3.) How to count confidently in 2’s (when working with halves); how to count confidently in 4’s (when working in quarters); how to count confidently in 3’s (when working in thirds) etc.
.
This sheet has questions related to halves, quarters and thirds but you can always change the questions.
Fully editable.
