• Using flash cards with fractions (proper
fraction, improper fraction, and mixed number),
choose three pupil leaders to hold the signs:
Proper fraction, Improper fraction, and Mixed
number. Let pupils group themselves into three
and by groups, let them form their lines at the
center.
• The teacher flashes the cards. The first group
will go to the pupil leader to give the answer for
the card. Once finished answering, they will go
back to their own seats.
