Draw a square. Show ½
shaded.
How many different ways can
you think of to show ½?
Get creative and try to find at least 5 different ways!

Here is a visual representation of five different creative ways to show ½ of a square shaded. Each method divides the square differently, but still maintains half of the area shaded.

Would you like further explanation on any of these, or have any other questions?

Here are 5 relative questions to expand your understanding:
1. How does dividing a shape diagonally affect its area?
2. Can you think of more creative ways to represent ½?
3. How can you prove that each shaded area is exactly half?
4. How would you represent ¼ of a square using similar creative designs?
5. Can you represent ½ in a circular or triangular shape?

**Tip:** Symmetry can help when dividing shapes equally!
