Understanding Parts of a Whole
What You'll Learn: How to divide things into equal parts, understand halves, quarters, and thirds, and use these ideas in everyday life!
What is a Whole?
A whole is something complete and not divided. Think of a whole pizza, a whole apple, or a whole group of 12 cookies. When something is whole, it's all together in one piece or one complete set.
What is a Part?
A part (or share) is a piece of the whole. When we break or divide something into parts, each piece is a part of the original whole.
Important: For parts to be fair, they must be equal in size!
