TRANSCRIPT
the children sighed
with anticipation
when the pie
was brought out
but there was a problem
there were eight
slices of pie
and just
seven children
Robert eyed
the extra
Slice greedily
while the others
complained it
Wouldn’t be
fair for him
to have two slices
the children thought
about how the extra
slice should be
divided
Linda knew they
needed to use
fractions to find
the answer
she asked
the group
what number
stood for the part
that needed to be divided
STOP ESC!!
David suggested
seven because
there were
seven children
Nathan said
one because
because there was one
extra slice of pie
Linda said that
Nathan was right
The numerator
is one she said
then Linda asked
what number stood
for how that part
should be divided
this time
David was right
the denominator
of the
fraction is seven
she said
one slice of pie
divided between
seven children
meant that each
child received one
Scrumptious slice
Plus one-seventh
of the extra slice
