Pizza Fractions. The easiest way to explain fractions is with pizza. The students cut out the toppings and add them to their pizza. Then they write how many are on their pizza out of how many were in the bunch (on the sheet). They glue it on their pizza and color their pizza. You can cut out the pizza and put it on construction paper. An easy, quick, and fun assessment tool. There is a questions page (not shown) to assess their knowledge. (ex. "I have _______ (a fraction) mushrooms on my pizza.)
I quickly drew this fractions Christmas activity to hang something on my wall. The students cut out the ornaments and match them with the correct fraction or fraction word(s). The top of the ornament is where they glue. When they lift the flap of the Christmas ornament, you get the answer/match. They can also color the ornaments and tree. Then cut out the tree and put it on construction paper. An easy, quick, and fun assessment tool.
I hand drew this assessment to see if my students really got the concept of comparing fractions using fraction strips. I told them to take out two different color crayons. They had to color each problem with the two different colors. Then compare the fractions. I noticed, when they were able to "see" the different colors and which fraction was "longer/greater" it help them tremendously. Hope this helps your students too. :)
I drew this fractions assessment because I wanted certain skills from Chapter 8 in Go Math, third grade. The students can "show what they know" by completing this worksheet. An easy, and quick assessment tool.
