First graders identify a whole and the fractions 1/4, 1/2, and 3/4 using pizza. This is a very nice lesson, in that not only do students practice their fractions, they also get to eat the pizza at the end of the lesson!

First graders review peacemaking strategies by identifying their capacity of creating and promoting peace within their classroom, home, community, and world. Fractions are introduced through the making of a "peace pie."
