Half and Whole Tree Map Sort

Common Core Half and Whole Tree Map Sort 
Students cut out the page below and sort the shapes on the tree map above. They sort by half, whole, and neither. Students must justify their answers by explaining their tree map with their partners. To increase the level of thinking, students can create their own shapes and switch with a partner. They can then sort their partners shapes on their tree map.  

Click on the picture above to get a copy of the tree map sort. If you so grab a sort, please leave me a comment-I would really appreciate it! Thanks-

    Thank you. I like the higher level thinking where they make their own shape. Thank you for sharing.

    Thank you for sharing. I have a few kids who always have trouble with this concept. Happy Holidays!
