There are ten no prep cases with a carnival theme, and they're print and go math activities for practice adding and subtracting fractions with like denominators. Use them for math centers, morning work, homework or sub plans. Every case has an answer key.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse this pack once your class can add and subtract fractions with like denominators. Students match each answer to a suspect's ID badge and cross that name off, and the last suspect left is the culprit. The fractions are printed stacked, the way students write them.

You can hand out one at a time through the fractions unit, or pull the single page a group needs, such as the regrouping case for students still working on borrowing. The two review cases at the end make a check before a fractions test. It also works for guided math groups, test prep, early finishers, homeschool lessons, and back to school or end of year fraction review.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrade Levels\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWritten for 4th grade, where students first add and subtract mixed numbers with like denominators.
