How to Play Make a Whole Using Fractions

Make a Whole Using Fractions can be played with 2 or 3 players. Here’s how to play:

Prepare the Game: Print the game board, which includes a 10 by 10 grid. Each box in

the grid represents a fraction of the whole. Teachers will need to attach a spinner or use a makeshift spinner by spinning a paperclip around the tip of a pencil.
Spin the Wheel: Each player takes turns spinning the wheel. The wheel includes various fractions, such as 5/100, 10/100, 15/100, and so on.
Color the Grid: After spinning the wheel, students look at the fraction they have spun. For example, if a student spins 1/100, they then color in 1/100 of the boxes on the 10 by 10 grid.
Add Up the Fractions: Once all the boxes on the grid have been colored in, players add up their total fractions. The player with the highest overall fraction colored in, or the first to make a whole, is the winner!
