GRADE: 3-6 / TIME: 1 BLOCK
Sweet Fractions with Rockets Candy! (Other candy can be used too)
Make learning fractions fun and tasty with this engaging, hands-on activity using Rockets candy! This guided worksheet walks students through the concept of fractions by helping them see the importance of equal parts in a whole before learning how to add fractions accurately. Perfect as an introduction or review, this lesson reinforces key math concepts in a memorable (and delicious!) way. Best of all, students get to eat their candy at the end!
A pack of rockets has 15 candies. If a student tells you otherwise, ask them to check the floor!
TIP: Having the same amount of candies per student makes it easier but you could give them any type of candy that has different colours.
