Rainbow Fraction Circles represent different fractions for instructive comparison. Teach students how to compare and construct fractions, work with mixed numbers, and add/subtract fractions with like and unlike denominators. Fraction circles represent a whole, halves, thirds, fourths, fifths, sixths, eighths, tenths, and twelfths. Fraction circles have a 3-1/2" diameter.
