Description
Your students are gardeners in this Spring Fraction Project! In this math craft project your students will design a garden and will go on to create a display that describes their garden in terms of fractions. Students will name fractions, compare fractions, explore fraction equivalence and solve simple fraction addition problems.
This activity is NO PREP for you. Just print, provide your students with crayons and scissors and you are ready to go! The activity has been designed to be mounted on a large piece of construction paper but you can print at a smaller scale to create a mini-project.
Included In This Resource:
- Detailed teacher instructions
- Student planning page
- Garden Template
- 4 “flip book” pages exploring fractions through your students’ garden

Originally reviewed on TPTI used this resource to for a review of fractions/something to display on their desks to show their knowledge of math during Open House. The parents loved seeing how their children learned fractions.

Originally reviewed on TPTOverall, this was a great activity for reviewing fraction concepts for my 2nd graders. I do wish there was an option for students to create their own veggies and not have pre-determined ones (carrots, beets, and onions). It limited them on the type of fractions they could make with their gardens. I liked the flip book style of this project and that it covered most of the topics we learned during our fraction unit.

Originally reviewed on TPTMy kids struggled to be creative with naming their vegetables and getting silly with the project but sometimes that’s half the lesson, thinking outside the box! I enjoyed it.

Originally reviewed on TPTThis was a nice review of fractions right before state testing . My kids didn’t think that it was work since they got to color and cut and glue.
