| How much is Shaded? Fractions in this worksheet are
represented as circles divided into sectors. The task is to work out what
fraction of each circle has been shaded. answers |
|||
| How far along each line are the arrows? Each fraction on
this worksheet is shown by an arrow pointing to an interval on a straight
line. answers |
|||
| Pie Shading 29 circles need to be shaded in order to
represent given fractions. answers** |
|||
| Coordinates and Fractions Game This can be used as a
fast paced warm up game. Fractions are represented by 35 partially shaded
circles and are arranged on a coordinates grid. Percentage or decimal
related questions might also be asked. |
|||
| Improper Fractions
24 illustrations (pies and slices) provide a visual representation of improper fractions. As an extra activity, learners can also give their answers as mixed fractions (also known as ‘mixed numbers’)
answers |
|||
| Mixed Fractions
Mixed fractions are illustrated here as points on a line. Answers may also be given as improper fractions.

|||
| Shading Blocks
This worksheet gives learners practice in finding fractions of whole number quantities represented by blocks of squares. This may also provide an opportunity to explore and discuss equivalent fractions.
answers** |
|||
| Line Fractions
Here is another visual way of demonstrating fractions.
answers |
|||
| The following 2 worksheets use line fractions positioned above strips of blocks to illustrate fractions of whole numbers: | |||
|
Line Fractions | Fractions of whole number quantities | 1
answers |
|||
|
Line Fractions | Fractions of whole number quantities | 2
answers | |||
| Equivalent Fractions 1
The task here is to find fractions of small numbers represented by groups of shapes. Learners can then simplify the answers as far as possible.
answers |
|||
| Equivalent Fractions 2
On this worksheet, learners shade in circles or blocks to visually illustrate equivalent fractions.
answers** |
|||
| The following 2 worksheets are designed to help learners reinforce their concept of equivalent fractions by dividing sectors of partially shaded circles (worksheet 1) or by dividing blocks (worksheet 2). | |||
| Changing Fractions | Worksheet 1 (Circles) answers |
|||
| Changing Fractions | Worksheet 2 (Rectangles)
answers |
|||
| Equivalent Fractions 3 This worksheet allows learners to demonstrate their understanding of equivalent fractions by shading in a range of shapes. answers** |

These worksheets use dials to show fractions of whole number quantities...
|
|||
| Unusual Dials (Volume) 20 dials, each with 8 intervals answers |
|||
| Unusual Dials (Weight) 20 dials, each with 10 intervals answers |
|||
| Unusual Dials (Temperature) 20 dials, each with 12 intervals answers |
|||
| Fractions of whole numbers | 1 30 questions e.g. 1/2 x 10. answers |
|||
| Fractions of whole numbers | 2 30 questions e.g. 4/5 x 55. answers |
|||
| Loop | Fractions of whole numbers | a Loop | Fractions of whole numbers | b Cut up along the DOTTED lines only. You should now have 32 rectangles (16 from each sheet). The rectangles are given out so each player has at least one each. Encourage the players to look at the number on the left of their rectangles and consider what questions might give their number. Any player can start by reading aloud the 'question part' on the right of their rectangle. If another player has the answer on their card they call it out, and then ask their question. This continues until the loop ends when the player who asked the first question gives the answer to the very last question. Tips: It's worth printing out two extra sheets just so you can keep track! For smaller groups some players may be given 2 or more rectangles, or if you prefer the loop itself may be shortened with a little cutting and sticking. |
