ADDING FRACTIONS is a Grade 4 board game for adding two or more fractions with like denominators. Dice determine movement and board actions while students combine fractional parts and write results in lowest terms. Working with several fractions in a single expression helps students see that the common denominator remains fixed while the numerators are combined.
Use it for partner or small-group review when students need repeated practice with like denominators and simplifying equivalent fractions. Ask students to predict whether a result will be greater or less than one before calculating. A free Find a Math Game account can generate teacher-ready lesson support for ADDING FRACTIONS.
