Fraction Booster
An excellent fractions booster activity from
BGFL. There are five levels to work through. In
level 1 you simply type in the number of
children to share the pizza and the pizza will
be cut into fractions for you. At Level 2 you
drag fractions to complete a fraction wall. In
Level 3 you have to count the number of shaded
squares and the total number of squares then
type in the fraction (use a slash e.g.
1/4). Level 4 introduces a fraction numberline
for you to drag the fractions onto. Level 5
uses a pizza to illustrate fraction
equivalences.
