It is already divided into 12 equal sections. Lots of math concepts can be taught with this candy bar:
- numerators and denominators
- identifying and labeling fractions
- adding and subtracting fractions
- equivalent fractions
- improper fractions (need 2 candy bars)

| 12/12 = 1 whole |

| 5/12 |

| 6/12 = 1/2 |
There is also a children's book by Jerry Palotta and Rob Bolster to go along with the chocolate bar to help teach/review the concept of fractions.
Have fun with fractions!
