Fraction Dice (Large) (Product Code: SLE/LP/06) is a large fraction die used for whole-class activities on identifying, comparing and making common fractions in primary maths lessons. One die is intended per class section, and it drives the fractional number-sense games that are played with the Fraction Kit. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as part of its educational lab equipment for schools.

Because a single large die serves the whole section, the teacher can roll it at the front of the room and every child works with the same fraction at the same moment — naming it, comparing it with the previous roll, or deciding whether it lies closer to ½, 1/4 or 3/4. That shared focus makes it easy to see who has grasped the idea and who needs another example.
The estimation habit it builds, asking “is this nearer a half or three-quarters?”, gives children a feel for the size of a fraction before they calculate with it. During group time the die links to the Fraction Kit: groups make the rolled fraction with their kit pieces and check whether their estimate was right.
Fraction Dice (Large) comes from Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the company that trades as ScienceLab in Ambala, Haryana. It is supplied to primary schools, maths resource rooms and distributors in India and international markets, usually in the same order as the kits it supports.

How many Fraction Dice (Large) does a school need?
Fraction Dice (Large) is intended as 1 per section, since it is used for whole-class activities. A school therefore usually orders one die for each class section that is being taught fractions at the same time.
What is the Fraction Dice (Large) used for?
The Fraction Dice (Large) is used to identify and compare fractions, to make and recognise different common fractions, and to estimate how close a fraction is to known fractions such as ½, 1/4 and 3/4 during whole-class games.
Can the Fraction Dice (Large) be used with the Fraction Kit?
Yes. The Fraction Dice (Large) is meant for games for fractional number sense played with the Fraction Kit, so a teacher can lead the whole class with the large die while groups work with their own kits.
Which fractions are marked on the Fraction Dice (Large)?
The fractions printed on the faces of the Fraction Dice (Large) are not listed in its description. Please ask through the contact page and we will confirm the face markings, size and material before you place an order.
Who supplies the Fraction Dice (Large)?
The Fraction Dice (Large) is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) from Ambala, Haryana, India, to schools and dealers in India and international markets, either on its own or together with fraction kits for group work.
