To add and subtract fractions with like or unlike denominators
1-2 CHALLENGE is a Grade 5 fraction game for adding and subtracting fractions with like or unlike denominators. Students choose cards to build two fractions, select an operation, and calculate the result before their work is checked. The card choices make students think about numerator and denominator combinations instead of simply solving fractions that have already been written for them.
This works well for small-group review when you want fraction computation mixed with decision-making and peer checking. It can also give you a quick look at how comfortably students find common denominators and judge the size of an answer. Generate the lesson for 1-2 CHALLENGE with a free Find a Math Game account.
