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. || You can decide whether to make your flag with halves, quarters or a mixture of fractions. The next step is to design your own flag by painting it in different colours, making sure that the number of squares you paint in each colour matches the fraction shown. Oswego. || This is not really a game, more a series of interactive lessons which take you from "What is a Fraction?" to "Add/Subtract Fractions and Mixed Numbers". A good resource for revision which covers a lot of ground. KidsOLR. || In this BBC Skillswise game you have to drag the fractions into the correct order, from the smallest at the bottom to the largest at the top. There are three different levels. At the easiest level all the fractions are one part, e.g. 1/6, 1/3, 1/4. || Hang each monkey in the correct place n the fraction numberline. You may have to find the lowest common denominator, e.g hang the 1/2 monkey where it says 2/4 on the numberline. There are two levels, easy and harder. If you hang a monkey in the wrong place he will fall off! ||
