Equivalent Fractions – Games for Kids!

We all know that students love games. Turning any topic into a game is a great way to review content and keep your students engaged at the same time. If your students have been working with equivalent fractions, you may be looking for a whole-class game that will get your students’ skills sharp.

This printable Bingo game comes with 24 calling cards and 25 different Bingo boards with a variety of colourful fraction models. To play this game, the teacher or student will draw a calling card and read it aloud to the class. Students will then look at their Bingo cards to see if one of the fraction models is an equivalent representation. Students will place counters over equivalent fractions as each card is read. The first person to get 5 in a row wins!
