Fraction Games

To gain a deeper understanding of fractions, students created fraction kits (they're the ziploc bag full of cut construction paper your child brought home a few days ago). We've used these kits to play two really fun games so far - Cover Up and Uncover. Through these games, the students have gained a really indepth understanding of how fractions relate to each other. Today in class, the students easily could tell me equivalent fractions for 1, 1/2, 1/4, and 1/8. I was very impressed. I've included some pictures below so you could see the kids playing the games in class.
