For the past week, we have been learning about equivalent fractions.  In order to further understanding, we had students create equivalent fraction robots.  Before creating the robots, we talked about how we could turn trash into treasure.  Students looked at trash art by artists around the world.  Once they had an idea of how to create their robots, students had a sheet that they had to multiply and divide in order to find equivalent fractions.  The fractions represented each body part.  Students had to go find the body part that matched the equivalent fraction they found in so that they could put together their robot.
