Pumpkin pie, one fraction at a time

Each bar in this worksheet is a pumpkin pie sliced into equal pieces, and students name the fraction that’s shaded. The festive theme reinforces the key idea behind every fraction: the denominator is the total number of equal parts, not the leftover ones.

How to use it

Have students count all the slices first (the bottom number), then the shaded ones (the top number). Stress that the slices must be equal for the fraction to make sense. Same skill as naming fractions of a shape.

👩‍🏫 Teacher note

A festive way to reinforce that the denominator is the TOTAL equal parts. Have students count all the slices first, then the shaded ones.

🏠 Parent note

The bottom number is how many equal slices the pie has; the top is how many are shaded.

Common Mistakes to Watch For

  • Writing shaded over unshaded instead of shaded over total
  • Counting unequal parts

Answer Key

Each answer shows the shaded fraction.
