Brighten up your maths space and support student understanding with our colourful Donut Fraction Posters. Each poster uses an engaging donut theme to clearly represent common fractions, making it easier for students to visualise equal parts of a whole. These visuals help turn abstract fraction concepts into something concrete and relatable.

Covering one whole, halves, thirds, quarters, fifths, sixths, eighths, and tenths, each poster features a bold, easy-to-read label and a clear illustration. The fun, food-themed design sparks interest and helps embed mathematical vocabulary in everyday classroom conversations. This resource works beautifully as a teaching aid and as a permanent reference display.

Available in both high and low colour options, these posters can be printed to suit your classroom style and printing needs. They are ideal for maths walls, small group learning areas, or individual student reference. Laminate for durability and reuse them year after year as part of your core maths toolkit.
