SPLAT!

Hello! Happy Tuesday!

Splat! What is the hidden value behind each splat?

What about in this picture?

Or this one?

Today in Math we started exploring the idea of mixed number fractions using Fraction Splats! 

Knowing that each splat covers the same value, we worked with out table groups to deduce the hidden value. We solved the splats by drawing, adding, subtracting, dividing and negotiating with our classmates.

How would you solve a splat?
