Kid talk

Today we worked on fractions (I can hear your nonverbal utterances of dislike). They had to come up with their own fraction and show us, using a thinkboard (looks like a Y chart), what that fraction looks like (draw), feels like (make it as well as convert to % and 0.00) and sounds like (story). This was one story-

STORY FOR 2/12

If I accidentally shot two people out of twelve, that fraction is 2/12.

DRAWING

Twelve circles, 2 circles had faces on it and were crossed out.

I was a little worried but then I looked at the back of his sheet and he had drawn a peace symbol with the word HIPPIE above it.
I don't know what is going through his head. Maybe he's just thinking outside the box and doesn't want to tell a story using the standard pizza.
