Description: Know Your Fractions Boom Cards - Concept Switch Level 2 includes 24 fill-in-the-blank styled, interactive, self-checking digital cards. The cards provide students with opportunities to improve their understanding of a range of fractional concepts. Students will add fractions; however, the cards are specially designed so that students are required to mentally switch between different fractional concepts for every card. As the cards progress, students are also tasked with converting improper factions into mixed numbers and simplifying fractions. As students work through the questions, they develop a greater understanding of the variety of ways a fraction can be visually represented. This requires a higher level of thinking than simply adding fractions that continuously uses the same visual representation. While setting an overall time limit is useful, it is important not to overstress time and urgency as students require a slightly deeper concentration to work properly and should be encouraged to work at the pace that works for them. The fractional concepts included in the cards include: - Fraction with a numerator and denominator - Parts of a whole - Number Line - In words - Fraction of a group - Decimals - Percentages Answer keys is provided on the last two cards (cards 26 & 27) Enjoy!
