                         What To Do?
                         To reinforce the understanding of fractions

                         What We Need?

                         White sheets of paper and a pencil

                         How To Do?
                              Make 2 sets with 20 slips of paper in each.
                                                                1 1 2 1
                              In one set, write fractions like  ,  ,  ,  , etc., one fraction on each slip.
                                                                2 3 5 7
                              In the second set, draw small pictures showing the corresponding fractions, one
                               picture on each slip.
                              Fold all the 40 slips and shuffl  e them well.               1          1         2
                                                                                            2          4         5
                              Each child will pick up one slip.
                              Each child will unfold the slip and will fi nd his/her

                                partner by matching the fractions with the pictures.






                                            1                     1                       2
                                            2                     4                       5





                         Another Idea
                                                                    1 1 2
                         Make slips of paper with fractions like  ,  ,  , etc., written on them, one fraction on
                                                                    2 4 9
                          each slip. Each child will pick up one slip and represent the fraction written on it using
                          pictures.
