What is the difference between a factor and a multiple? This game really helps my students to distinguish between factors and multiples! Playing "war" to find the GCF and the LCM (LCD) is a great way to get their minds "in gear" for reducing/ simplifying fractions, finding equivalent fractions and to add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators. I color coded the LCM (LCD) game in red and GCF game in blue to help differentiate the games. I hope your students find these games beneficial!

A great way to practice subtracting those tricky fractions! My students like to work "Millionaire-style" and enjoy using their "phone a friend", "eliminate a choice", and "ask for a hint" options! I'm including a blank question card and Millionaire worksheet so that you can also make your own "Millionaire" game. Enjoy!

Here's a fun way to review multiplication and division of fractions in pairs! Fraction Frenzy is played like "Connect Four". After students solve a problem from one of the squares, they place a token (like a button or eraser) onto their square. The first person to get four in a row wins!

Here are two worksheets that I use regularly for my students who are beginning algebra. Simple shapes make the problems more visually appealing. Hope they work well for you, too!
