Skittles Riddles Math

by Barbara Barbieri McGrath

 

 

 The book focuses on fractions, starting with basic fractions and then moving on to more advanced concepts such as equivalent fractions, reduced fractions, and addition with fractions.

Read the book to your class following a basic lesson on fractions. Give the students a bag of skittles and have them open it. Place the five colors in a circle.  Have them share one fifth of the Skittles by giving one to a friend. There are more activities the students can do as you reread the part on fractions.

 A glossary of math terms and a brief review appear at the end of the book.
