What you’ll get:

• Teacher directions
• Student directions
• 20 different blocks to colour (1 per student)
• Fraction strips for additional support
• The final poster is approximately 59cm x 74cm
• BONUS: Additional colouring activity

How it Works:

1. Distribute the poster pages. Each student will receive a piece of the larger poster.
2. Students use the code to colour the equivalent fractions on their pieces (blocks).
3. Assemble the puzzle. Once all pieces are completed, your students work together to piece the poster back together.

How to use the resource:

• Print the file ONE time for each class. Be sure to print single-sided. Ensure every student has something to colour and the proper supplies.
• Print student instructions and go over them together. Review finding equivalent fractions. Fraction strips are included to support students who find equivalent fractions difficult.
• You will need glue to assemble the blocks together. You will need scissors to cut the blocks just INSIDE the dashed lines.
• If you want to make the assembly more challenging, remove the grid reference letters from the student pages.
