Beautiful, I love it. I added a worksheet where students record their work. A table where they write their partner' s name and fraction in one column, a circle where they write the symbols, and a second column where they write their fraction. At the top I wrote the materials they need and instead of erase board I listed a worksheet.

It was good to use with my 3rd graders. I had to start out with them looking at the fraction. They weren't ready to compare with just numbers yet but we are working on it.

Thanks for the feedback and the rating! I'm glad it worked with your 3rd graders. It's a fun activity to connect the concrete with the abstract in math.
