Check out state and national flags to find designs that demonstrate fractional color divisions, then design your own fraction flag.
1.
Research flag designs. Note varying geometric configurations.
2.
With a ruler and Crayola® Scissors, measure and cut a 6- by 9-inch (15 x 24 cm) rectangle of oak tag.
3.
On white scrap paper, sketch a Fraction Flag with Crayola Crayons, following the teacher's directions about the number of segments and other requirements.
4.
On oak tag, draw your own flag with Crayola Crayons or Washable Markers. Use a ruler to divide the flag into exact fractional parts. Fill the flag with drawings and colors. On the back, write the fractional name and symbol (such as thirds, 1/3).
5.
Attach your flag with Crayola School Glue to a craft stick or short dowel stick. Dry overnight.
6.
Shape a flag stand with Crayola Model Magic. Insert the flag and fly it from your desk.
