Fraction of the day is a great routine. Jennifer Findley did a great graphic organizer! I have extended the concepts based on the math CCSS. To do this routine, you take a fraction like 3/4 and you have the students do some or all of the following:
1. Decide if it is in simplest form
2. Add 1/4; Draw a model
3. Subtract 1/4; Draw a model
4. Add 1/2 (You want students to realize that this is easy…just decompose 1/2 into fourths); Draw a model
5. Subtract 1/2 (see above); Draw a model
6. Multiply it by 3/ Write a story to go with your equation
7. Compose/Decompose it …like 3/4 = 1/4 +1/4 + 1/4 or 3/4 = 1/2 +1/4
8. Divide 3 by it / Write a story to go with your equation
9. Draw it on a Numberline….Is it closer to 0, 1/2 or 1
10. Draw it as a set and/or as the area model

Academically rigorous games keep students motivated! Play them in guided math groups and in math workstations. Be sure to have the students to discuss what they are doing and why they are doing it! Talk matters.
