Each student got one regular die and one fraction die. The idea was pretty simple, but very engaging. They rolled the two dice together to make a mixed number. Then they rolled them both again to create a second mixed number that they multiplied with their first number. This would also work great for dividing mixed numbers!
*If you don't have fraction dice, your could five them each 3 regular dice. Their first roll is the whole number and the next two create their fraction.
To make it into a challenge, every time they completed a problem correctly, they got to go up to the board and add a tally to our "Problems Completed" tracker. I went around and checked their answers as they finished.
