This choose your own adventure Powerpoint task allows students to practise multiplying and dividing fractions. It is suitable for students in upper KS2 or for review in lower KS3. This interactive, no prep task can be done as a whole class (with the class voting for each option), in small groups or individually. It is suitable for homework or as a main activity. For each part of the story (each slide) students will have to either multiply or divide two fractions, depending on how they want their adventure to continue. This engaging activity is a great way to ensure students gain confidence in operations with fractions. What’s included: A Powerpoint activity that can be shown to the whole class or shared with students. A Powerpoint with the answers to each slide. A worksheet for students to record their answers. This activity is designed to engage students for one lesson. Students can complete the activity multiple times, choosing a different story every time, if they finish early.
