counters
Directions
The players sit with their boards in front of them and their pile of 20
counters beside the board. The pack of numbered cards is put face down
between the players. The first player takes a card and reads the number on
it. They then make that number with two counters from the numbers on
their board. For example, if 16 had been picked, then a counter would be put
on a square marked "10" and one marked "6'. The next player then does the
same. The game continues until one player has put all their counters onto
their board. This player is the winner. If the number on the card cannot be
made then the player cannot go and misses a turn. When all the cards in the
centre have been used they are shuffled and used over again.

More Than Half Game (Grades 3 to 6)
(source unknown, inspired by The Fraction Game)
2 players
1 game sheet
2 dice
2 different coloured pencils
pattern blocks
Directions: The object of the game is to colour more than ½ of a circle to
score points. The player with the most points at the end is the winner. If a
player rolls a 3 and a 4, for example, that represents ¾ (improper fractions
cannot be used). The larger number rolled must be the denominator, and the
smaller number rolled must be the numerator. The player who has ¾ can
colour in 3 of the 1/4 sections on a circle, or ½ on one circle and ¼ on
another, 3 of the 1/6 sections, and 1 ¼ section etc. Basically you can colour a
total of ¾ of one circle or split it up between multiple circles. The pattern
blocks can help you determine which fractions are equivalent to help you
‘split’ your fraction if you choose.
The next player rolls and colours in the fraction however they choose.
Players are trying to colour more than half of a circle. Players may colour a
circle the other player has already started, but points can only be scored
for circles they colour more than half of. Once a player colours more than
half of a circle they put their initials beside that circle and that circle can
no longer be used. The player with their initials beside the most circles at
the end is the winner.
