Teaching your students how to multiply 1-digit and 2-digit fractions through puzzles is a fun and engaging way for them to practice their math skills. Puzzles challenge students to use critical thinking and problem-solving skills while reinforcing important mathematical concepts. By incorporating puzzles into the classroom, you can make learning more interactive and enjoyable for your students. This method also allows for hands-on learning as students physically manipulate pieces to find the correct answers. Additionally, puzzles provide immediate feedback, allowing students to self-assess their understanding of the material. Overall, using puzzles to teach multiplying fractions not only helps students grasp the concept more effectively but also makes learning fun and enjoyable.

These clip cards are a great way to test students’ knowledge of recognising fractions decimals and percentages using a physical multiple choice system. The given possible answers have been carefully chosen to allow teachers to spot any misconceptions students may have about fractions and their equivalence to decimals and percentages. The idea of this activity is that students 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. To make them self marking, simply place a dot on the underside of the card pertaining to the correct answer.

This activity is great to review writing ratios and finding equivalent ratios, especially in real-world examples! Students can find the equivalent ratio for the servings and write ratios to practice formations and order.

What this includes:

- Two booklets designed for independently or partner work.

- Examples of real world baking situations to use ratios.

- The ability to create a restaurant using ratios.

- How to incorporate visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning.

This is a fun activity for students to practice addition, subtraction, multiplication, and simplification of fractions by converting measurements for a recipe! The recipe comes from Sally's Baking Addiction, and it is her Peanut Butter Bars Recipe. This can be done as a whole group, in small groups, or by individual students. If you have the ability to have the students make the recipe after solving the puzzle, it is totally worth it! They will love being able to make something that they solved a puzzle for and have a delicious treat afterwards.

Students will be given a list of ingredients that have "weird" measurements on them. They will need to convert all of the measurements into the simplest form. Students will have to add, subtract, multiply, divide, and convert fractions from improper fractions to mixed numbers and put all of the measurements into simplest form. Once students solve the puzzle and get the correct answers that match the answer key, then they will receive the steps to prepare the Peanut Butter Bars/Cups. ** I recommend doing the bars. They are definitely easier to do, especially in a classroom setting, but the cups do look better. They both taste the same though.**

I hope you enjoy it and make something yummy! Please rate and review.
