Fraction Strips (Free Printable)

Click on the link below for youf free fraction strips copy, and scroll down for the fraction strips blank version.

Fraction strips are narrow, rectangular pieces of colored paper of varying lengths used to teach fractions. I have designed large fraction strips that can be coloured in various colors, and can be folded and cut up to represent different fractional parts. Fractional parts are equal shares that makeup a whole. For example, it takes five 1/5 pieces to makeup one whole. Fractional strips are a great way to model equivalent fractions.

What's my 6 to 7 year old been up to?

My daughter had just turned six when we relocated to another city from Saudi's capital to the eastern province. My DD typically doesn't mind change, in fact she looks forward to the unknown and adapts anywhere as long as she has the security of her family by her side.

Restarting our home school education after a long 3 month summer/autumn break was easier than I thought, DD initiated her own independent studies and left me to do the unpacking for our new home, I'll really appreciated that. 

Her progress between 6 to 7 years old has been easy going for her, since this year was about revision.
