About This Lesson
A Tarsia activity on adding fractions. These type of activities can be used to consolidate understanding of a given topic, and foster positive group work and co-operative learning. For more ideas on how to use these types of activities (including twists!) and to download the latest version of the wonderful free software to open this resource (and create your own), just click on the web-link. If you have any comments, or spot any (non deliberate!) mistakes, please share them below. Many thanks to all the teachers who have helped me assemble these Tarsias over the years.
A fantastic resource which enables the teacher to check understanding and progress in a different, more enjoyable way for the pupils. I like the fact that you can get pupils to work in pairs or as a group to work on these tasks, and they can easily be differentiated. Good resource!
