Activity Instructions
Make several of the fraction image that you see on the mat (rectangles) on pieces of paper that are equivalent sizes. Have a student toss two bean bags onto the mat, find the equivalent paper fractions and find how many of one fits into the other. For example, if the bean bags land on 1/2 and 1/4, ask them to divide one half by one fourth. They place the 1/4 paper onto the 1/2 and find out how many fit inside it. They will find 1/2 divided by 1/4 is 2.
