CRITICAL THINKING TASK CARDS World Geography Vocabulary Fractions

Exercise your students’ critical thinking with WORLD GEOGRAPHY VOCABULARY FRACTIONS TASK CARDS. The challenge is to create names of countries using fractional parts of words. This activity affords your students the chance to work with content specific vocabulary while honing skill with fractional parts. The task gradually increases in difficulty, transitioning from 2 part clues with pictures and words to 4 part clues with just pictures. Pupils must deduce the correct word and its spelling. Solving equivalent fractions provides even more challenge. These task cards are offered in print and digitally on TPT Easel.

I strongly advise solving several of these task cards together, “thinking out loud” to model the problem solving required.

This product is CCSS aligned for grades 3 and 4. Fifth graders will also enjoy the challenge.
