Fractions Task Cards

Every one of these thirty-two cards carries a fraction model drawn from its own numbers — a bar or a circle cut into equal parts, two bars the same length for comparing, a number line with a point to name. Naming, equivalence, comparing, then adding, subtracting, and reading a number line.
