Introduction
2.G.3 Partition squares, rectangles and circles into two or four equal parts, and describe the parts using the words halves, fourths, a half of, and a fourth of. Understand that when partitioning square, rectangle or circle into two or four equal parts, the parts become smaller as the number of parts increases.
