Shape Division is a new feature within SMART Notebook Math Tools. When you divide a rectangle once, each new piece can then be divided again. This video shows a brave attempt to divide a rectangle more times, and into more pieces, than any rectangle has ever been divided before (in SMART Notebook Math).

If you’ve divided a rectangle more than 11 times (and kept the fraction clear) please let us know about it!

Creating fractions has never been easier than with the new Notebook Math Tools feature, shape division. Now when a teacher puts a square or circle on a page and goes to the drop down menu they will see an option for shape division. When they click on this they select how many equal portions they want the shape divided into. Then vwala, an easy way to teach student’s fractions!
