Simplifying Fractions Bingo
By Laura Candler
Even when students understand the concept of
simplifying fractions, they need lots of practice to
become fluent with this skill. This Simplifying Fractions Bingo
game is a fun way for students to practice and become
proficient.
Directions:
1. Prepare one set of Calling Cards by printing the Fraction
Bingo Problems on cardstock or heavy construction
paper. Then print the Fraction Answers on the back of
that page. The answers are place on the page in the
correct order so that each answer lands on the back of
each problem. Then cut apart the cards, shuffle them,
and place them in an envelope.
2. Give each student a copy of the blank Bingo board.
3. Display the Fraction Bingo Answers or call them out, one at a time, for students
to record randomly on their boards. Be sure to emphasize the importance of
each person creating a unique board by mixing up the answers and not writing
them in the order that you display or announce them
4. The Caller draws out a Fraction Problem and writes in on the board. Players
simplify the fraction until it’s in lowest terms and find the equivalent fraction on
their boards.
5. Continue playing until someone has a row, column,
or diagonal covered and announces, “Bingo!”
6. The Caller should check the answers to be sure they
are correct before declaring a winner.
