  • Create laminated sets of these fractions strips that can be used year after year with your classes

Classroom Considerations

  • Provide the class with small plastic bags so they can store their fractions strips in between lessons

Pros

  • Fraction strips are included for halves, thirds, fourths, fifths, sixths, and tenths, as well as one whole
  • Strips are large enough for students to easily manipulate them while modeling different math problems

Cons

  • None
