Identifying Fractions | Clip Cards

These clip cards are a great way to test students’ knowledge of recognising fractions using a physical multiple choice system. It includes simplified fractions in the form of circles, squares, strips and objects. The given possible answers have been carefully chosen to allow teachers to spot any misconceptions students may have about fractions.

The following fractions are included: Half, one third, two thirds, one quarter, three quarters, one fifth, two fifths, three fifths, four fifths, one sixth, five sixths, one sevenths, two sevenths, three sevenths, four sevenths, five sevenths, six sevenths, one eighth, three eighths, five eighths, seven eighths, one ninth, two ninths, four ninths, five ninths, seven ninths, eight ninths, one tenth, three tenths, seven tenths, nine tenths and ten tenths.

The idea of this activity is that students work our what fraction of the given image is shaded, then clip a clothespin/peg or a paperclip to what they think is the correct answer.

This activity works equally well when the cards are laminated. Students simply circle the correct answer using a dry erase marker. Alternatively, you can print these on paper, hand out to your class at the end of the lesson, so they can put their names on and circle the correct answer, serving as a great exit ticket/plenary to the lesson.

These cards are in colour, but print equally well in grey scale for cost savings.
