Free Turkey Pie Maths Games – Fractions, Decimals, Percentages, Illustrations

This free set of maths cards includes fractions, decimals, percentages, words and turkey pie pictures for KS2. Ideal for Thanksgiving & Christmas to play games such as Memory, Snap, Pairs, Families & Go Fish. Students take turns finding equivalent values and thinking mathematically, making connections and becoming more confident with understanding these mathematical concepts.

Kids love playing games so if you can mix learning with playing you know you will be onto a winner! Card activities might seem old-fashioned in our screen-loving age, but these games will help your students become fluent and confident with mathematical thinking without realizing how much they are learning and exercising their maths-thinking brains!

Easy setup makes this perfect for independent activities, centres and supply days. Encourage them to stop the game occasionally and discuss how they know that 20% = 0.2 = one-fifth = 1/5 etc. Explaining this clarifies their thinking and helps them understand converting fractions, decimals and percentages.

Players will be engaged as they will check whether the other players are correct. A fast game of Snap encourages speed in calculating as the person who calls Snap correctly first wins the pile of cards.
