OPERATION FRAC-RACE

fractions · adding, subtracting, and multiplying fractions

To add, subtract and multiply fractions with like or unlike denominators

OPERATION FRAC-RACE is a Grade 5 fraction board game that mixes addition, subtraction, and multiplication. A player’s board position determines the operation, then four cards are used to build two fractions and complete the calculation. Since the denominators and numerators change every turn, students must decide how to handle like and unlike denominators and then simplify their result when appropriate.

Use it in a small group when students are ready for mixed fraction-operation review. The board movement keeps the game varied while the operation board gives students a clear place to show their work and check one another’s answers.
