What educators are saying

I used this with a pizza parlor room transformation and the kids loved it! It went perfectly with the objective and was engaging.
I am using the resource with gifted 1st graders and it is quite challenging! We are doing it together as a group and it is really causing them to THINK!

Description

⭐ Pizza Fractions is a project based learning unit based around working in a pizza restaurant. Students will solve fraction problems based on preparing and serving pizzas.

⭐ Students follow instructions to identify equal pizza slices, partition pizzas into fractions, add toppings to pizzas to make fractions, and answer various story problems about fractions and their pizzas. Additional "challenge activities" engage students and develop further understanding of the concepts and skills.

⭐No prep, print and go!

⭐ This project-based learning task involves using the following CCSS Geometry math standards to solve problems related to pizza preparation.

CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.G.A.2

Partition a rectangle into rows and columns of same-size squares and count to find the total number of them.

CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.G.A.3

Partition circles and rectangles into two, three, or four equal shares, describe the shares using the words halves, thirds, half of, a third of, etc. and describe the whole as two halves, three thirds, four fourths. Recognize that equal shares of identical wholes need not have the same shape.

Key Features:

✏️ Printable & Digital Format - Printable PDF & Google Slides formats make this resource perfect for classroom instruction, distance learning, and everywhere in between. Digital and printable versions are consistent, so they can be used for combination classroom and virtual instruction situations.

✏️ Educational & Engaging - This resource will capture the imagination of your students while they practice key math skills. Students are hired as pizza makers to study circular and rectangular pie fractions. Their job is to create and serve pizzas with their toppings in the proper proportions!

✏️ Differentiation - Two challenge activities mean that you can challenge your high-performing students while making the resource accessible to your on-level and below-level students.
