Description

A deep understanding of fractions is essential for success in higher-level math, but addition when fractions don't have the same denominator can be a challenge, especially for students who haven't mastered multiples. This engaging pack of task cards focuses on building students fluently compute using fractions and mixed numbers.

This set of 34 adding fractions task cards includes two versions - multiple-choice and open-ended - in the set. This makes it easy to differentiate to meet the needs of all learners. These task cards are perfect for math stations/centers, small group RTI instruction, test prep and review, or as a class formative assessment.

These task cards are also available digitally for use with BOOM Learning. Get them here: Adding Fractions Digital Task Cards - BOOM Cards

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Add and subtract mixed numbers with like denominators, e.g., by replacing each mixed number with an equivalent fraction, and/or by using properties of operations and the relationship between addition and subtraction.
Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators (including mixed numbers) by replacing given fractions with equivalent fractions in such a way as to produce an equivalent sum or difference of fractions with like denominators. For example, 2/3 + 5/4 = 8/12 + 15/12 = 23/12. (In general, 𝘢/𝘣 + 𝘤/𝘥 = (𝘢𝘥 + 𝘣𝘤)/𝘣𝘥.)
Interpret a fraction as division of the numerator by the denominator (𝘢/𝘣 = 𝘢 ÷ 𝘣). Solve word problems involving division of whole numbers leading to answers in the form of fractions or mixed numbers, e.g., by using visual fraction models or equations to represent the problem. For example, interpret 3/4 as the result of dividing 3 by 4, noting that 3/4 multiplied by 4 equals 3, and that when 3 wholes are shared equally among 4 people each person has a share of size 3/4. If 9 people want to share a 50-pound sack of rice equally by weight, how many pounds of rice should each person get? Between what two whole numbers does your answer lie?
