How Many Wholes: A Math Game of Fractions

This isn’t just ANY book! How Many Wholes is an engaging tool to teach fractions. Students take dominoes from a sack to choose a denominator and spin a spinner (or roll a die) to determine a numerator. Students assemble this generated fraction using fractional pieces of a circle. After three rounds, the student with the most “wholes” WINS. Working with fraction manipulatives gives the teacher insight into the student’s understanding of how fractions relate to one whole, as students build the whole. Furthermore, the fraction manipulatives allow the teacher to use a hands-on and visual model to relay concepts of fractions to wholes.
