Questions about Sharing Equally

What does the Sharing Equally worksheet cover?

It practices equal shares of one whole, named as halves, thirds or fourths — 6 questions for Grade 2, all on Common Core 2.G.A.3: Split shapes into halves, thirds and quarters. The instruction to students is “Read carefully, then work out the answer”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.

Which Common Core standard does Sharing Equally practice?

CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.G.A.3 — 2.G.A.3, under Geometry for Grade 2. The published standard reads: “Partition circles and rectangles into two, three, or four equal shares, describe the shares using the words halves, thirds, half of, a third of, etc.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.

What age or grade is this worksheet for?

Sharing Equally is written for Grade 2, typically ages 7-8. It is one of the sheets on 2.G.A.3, so it suits any student working at that standard — including older students revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.

Does Sharing Equally come with an answer key?

Yes. All 6 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.

How many different versions of Sharing Equally can I print?

25 — one per student, and all 25 ask different questions. Set 1 downloads the whole class as a single PDF. Every version is fixed to its own address, so a sheet printed today holds the same problems when you reopen it next week.

Is Sharing Equally free to print and photocopy?

Yes. Sharing Equally, its answer key and its 25 versions are free to print and photocopy for your own class, with no account, no email capture and no subscription at the download step. Please do not resell them or republish them as your own.
