Free Christmas Comparing Fractions Game  

Materials:

Dice

Set of 12 Like Objects (Call these Set A)

Set of 12 Like Objects (Call these Set B)

Empty Bag

Math Journal (or paper)

Players: Game may be played with 2-6 players (or more). More players makes this game significantly harder. This is a great way to differentiate. Lower students play with partners. Average students play with 2-4 players. Advanced players play with 5 or more.

Step 1: Place all 24 objects in a bag. (Sets A and B)

Step 2: First student rolls the dice. The first die determines how many A objects to take out of the bag. The second die determines how many B objects to take out of the bag.

Step 3: Player 1 writes a fraction answering the question, "How many Objects A out of how many total were drawn?"

Step 4: Player 2 takes a turn following the same steps.

Step 5: Players determine whose fraction is larger? The player with the larger fraction earns one point.

Step 6: The first player to 10 points wins.
