Comparing Fractions Football Game
- PDF
What educators are saying
Description
Perfect for Super Bowl, NFL Day, or a Football theme! They grab a partner, create a paper football, and make a goal with their fingers! Bam! You have a fun indoor football game!
Students take turns between shooting field goals and being the football field goal . They record the amount of field goals they make and the amount of field goals they miss in fraction form. Then they compare the results of the different rounds! What a great way to get kiddos pumped up and excited about using fractions in a real world way!
I have included two different recording sheets for comparing fractions. One requires students to use a tape or strip diagram and the other page requires students to create a number line.
Included:
Game directions and pictures
Recording Sheet
Comparing Fractions Recording sheet with fraction strips (tape diagrams)
Comparing Fractions Recording sheet with number lines
Helpful Hint: I call fraction bars the “KitKat Model” because it looks like a Kit Kat Bar. It is easy for students to compare fractions with bars directly over one another.
Variations:
Have students compare their “scores” with their partner.
Play outside using a real football!
