These fraction cards will give your students loads of practice at ordering fractions in a fun and practical way. This pack contains three sets of cards.
Diff. 1: All of the denominators are the same.
Diff. 2: The denominators are different.
Diff. 3: The denominators are different and more complicated.
These cards can be used as a whole class or in small groups. There are lots of different variations for this activity; we have listed a few that we like to do below.
- Go outside and give each child a fraction card. Ask them to get into order smallest to biggest as quickly as possible. To make it more challenging, see if they can do it without talking.
- Scavenger Hunt: Hide the cards around your outdoor space and get them to find the cards and order them as quickly as possible.
- Small groups. Give a set of cards to small groups and get them to hang them on a washing line from smallest to biggest.
