Splitting shapes into equal parts (age 7+)
Partition circles and rectangles into two, three, or four equal shares; describe shares as halves, thirds, and fourths; recognise that equal shares of identical wholes need not have the same shape
Typical age: 7–8 years
“If you cut a rectangle into thirds in two different ways (three strips vs three squares), can your child recognise that both give equal thirds — even though the pieces look different?”
