About This Activity

Maya sketched every animal enclosure on her zoo map today.

Teacher Tip

Bring in a zoo map printout and have students shade fractions of animal sections — for example, ask 'If the zoo has 4 sections and lions live in one, what fraction shows the lion area?' This grounds CCSS.MATH.3.NF.A.1 in a visual, story-connected context.
