Magnetic Fraction Disk
Product Code : JA-F-3626
The Magnetic Fraction Disk (SKU JA-F-3626) is a set of soft foam fraction circles with magnetic backing, supplied by JaincoLab for demonstrating fractions on a magnetic board. The 55 colour-coded pieces make up ten circles, from one whole through halves and thirds to tenths, so a teacher can place magnetic fraction circles side by side and show equivalent fractions to the whole class. It suits primary and middle-school maths lessons and maths labs.
Specifications
The set has 55 proportional pieces of soft magnetic foam that form ten circles: a whole, halves, thirds, fourths, fifths, sixths, sevenths, eighths, ninths and tenths; each fraction is colour-coded and the pieces hold on any magnetic surface.

Applications of the magnetic fraction circles
Teachers use the magnetic fraction circles at the board to introduce a fraction as part of a whole, to compare unit fractions of different sizes and to show that pieces such as two fourths and one half cover the same part of the circle.
- Introducing halves, thirds, fourths and other unit fractions
- Comparing and ordering fractions by size
- Showing equivalent fractions, for example 2/4 = 1/2 and 2/10 = 1/5
- Adding fractions with like denominators on the board
- Small-group and whole-class demonstrations in the maths lab
