Practise counting by fractions with this interactive space-themed resource.
Students will count along a number line while seeing visual representations of fractions break apart. Each planet students visit has a new fraction to count, including halves, thirds, quarters, fifths and tenths.
Choose to run this digital activity with your whole class as an introduction to your lesson or as a fun wrapping-up activity. Follow the instructions given by the alien in the PowerPoint. You can click the ‘Count’ button multiple times to practise counting by that particular fraction again.
The resource finishes with a small quiz involving missing fractions along a number line. Students must count by the fraction to determine those missing.
