Description
This is a set of 234 colorful fraction flash cards. The set includes circles, squares, rectangles, bar models, number lines, and incorrectly partitioned models. Models represent fractions with denominators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, and 12. This is everything you need for teaching all your fraction standards. These cards are so versatile!
To use for discussion (Fraction Talk), start by displaying one fraction card. Ask students questions like the ones below. You can also print them from pages 4 -11 and put on a ring for easy use.
What fraction is shaded/ not shaded?
What fraction is represented by the point on the number line?
What is the numerator/denominator?
What do the numerator and denominator tell us about this fraction?
What is the unit fraction?
How can you make this fraction using only the unit fraction?
Name a fraction greater/less than this fraction.
How much would we need to shade to show one whole?
Name an equivalent fraction.
Can you use this fraction in a real-life situation?
Can you make a false statement about this model?
Is the fraction closer to zero, one half, or one?
After you have done this several times, simply say to students, βTalk to us about this fraction.β See what they can come up with on their own. The experiences they had with you asking questions should give them a background for making statements about the models.
Move to showing two cards at a time and ask students to first talk about them individually and then discuss similarities and differences.
Questions for two or three cards:
Are the models alike in any way?
How are the models different?
Compare the models using >, <, or =. (use two like models)
How are the parts and wholes different?
Cards with Incorrect Partitioning:
Why is this NOT _______?
Example: Why is this NOT ?
Cards can be used in whole or small group instruction, stations, warm-ups, or games like Scoot. The cards are great for discussion or written responses requiring students to support their answers.
