Our worksheets are perfect for reinforcing and improving student understanding of fractions, whether they are just starting to learn about them or need extra practise. With over 20 different worksheets included, you’ll never run out of engaging fraction activities to keep your students learning and growing.

With this pack of fraction worksheets, students will practise the following skills:

• partitioning shapes into equal pieces

• solving word problems.

An answer key is included with your download to make grading fast and easy!  

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding 

In addition to independent student work time, use this worksheet as an activity for:

• Guided maths groups 
• Lesson warm-up
• Lesson wrap-up
• Fast finishers 
• Homework assignment
• Whole-class review (via smartboard)

If there are students in need of a challenge, the two-star version can be used. These pages encourage students to partition shapes independently and solve problems without the help of visual models. 

For students who need additional support, consider assigning them the one-star version of a worksheet. This version is a bit more structured to help students find success with representing fractions.
