This is an awesome activity to use with students who have a beginning understanding of fractions. Great enrichment or remediation activity for small groups as well.
Description
Pizza Glyph Craftivity to Teach Shapes and Fractions
(CCSS Aligned)
MD4 & 1.G.A
This is a fun way to teach shapes and fractions to students.
As students read through the glyph, they get to choose pieces to create a pizza. The shapes include pepperoni circles, rectangular cheese, triangle meat, and square pineapples. After creating this craft, students can then work on MD4, and create a bar graph based on data from the pizza creativity. I have included questions at the bottom of the craft to help with interpreting data too.
Lastly, there is an assessment on fractions using pizzas at the end of this task. You could even have students cut their craft to show whole, halves, thirds, quarters, etc.
I hope you enjoy this fun creativity!

CCSS1.MD.C.4
Organize, represent, and interpret data with up to three categories; ask and answer questions about the total number of data points, how many in each category, and how many more or less are in one category than in another.
CCSS1.G.A.1
Distinguish between defining attributes (e.g., triangles are closed and three-sided) versus non-defining attributes (e.g., color, orientation, overall size); build and draw shapes to possess defining attributes.
CCSS1.G.A.2
Compose two-dimensional shapes (rectangles, squares, trapezoids, triangles, half-circles, and quarter-circles) or three-dimensional shapes (cubes, right rectangular prisms, right circular cones, and right circular cylinders) to create a composite shape, and compose new shapes from the composite shape.
CCSS1.G.A.3
Partition circles and rectangles into two and four equal shares, describe the shares using the words halves, fourths, and quarters, and use the phrases half of, fourth of, and quarter of. Describe the whole as two of, or four of the shares. Understand for these examples that decomposing into more equal shares creates smaller shares.
