Third graders observe two fractions and write the numbers in order from least to greatest referring to the sheet with different fractions they have before them to help them decide which one is smaller. Time allowing, they practice...

Young scholars study addition of fractions with like denominators using illustrations and problem solving.

After your math classes have been introduced to fractions (especially those with denominators of two, four, and eight), introduce them to fractions on a number line with this lesson. Using a meter length of tape, show your class where...

In this adding decimals worksheet, learners add numbers with decimals after looking at examples and number lines. Students complete 6 problems.

Students begin the lesson by discovering that a fraction is one part of a whole. In groups, they practice reducting larger fractions into small fractions and discovering they are equal. They use blocks to identify the relationship...

Students investigate fractions using online sources.

Students receive 10 M & M's to study about fractions. As a class, they divide the ten M & M's into a half. They then take away two and use the eight M & M's to study about fourths. They also use nine to study about thirds.

In this math worksheet, learners convert the fractions to decimals. They also practice converting decimals into fractions or mixed numbers.

In this math activity, students find the values of the fractions and convert them to decimals. They also change decimals into fractions.

Here is one of the better lessons I've come across on how to teach fractions and decimals. This lesson does a great job of showing how these two mathematical representations of numbers are interrelated. Some excellent websites, printable...

Enhance your next lesson on probability with a text rich presentation intended to teach the language associated with probability. The use of decimals, fractions, and percents are discussed as well are the terms, likely, unlikely, and...

The written form for 345 is three-hundred forty-five, where as the word form for 70% is seventy percent. Here, young mathematicians read 10 sentences and write the word form of each number in the sentences.

In this fractions and decimals activity, students convert 6 fractions into decimals. Students work out their answers in the spaces provided.

In this fractions and decimals practice worksheet, students sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve 6 story problems.

Third graders write fractions and decimals using unifix cube models and grid paper. They draw a garden using grid paper and label each section with the correct fraction and decimal to the tenths. This is a clever way to use manipulatives...

Third graders use fractions manipulatives to explore fractions.  In this fraction lesson, 3rd graders work in groups based on skill to increase understanding of fractions.  Students create fraction books.

Third graders create addition and subtraction word problems for a partner to solve using marbles. They explain whether the problem is an addition, subtraction, "take away", "have and need", compare or "what is the rest" type problem.

In this math worksheet, students solve the problems that are related to the converting of mixed fractions. The sheet is intended as a teacher's guide.

Practice place value skills with this instructional activity. Learners put numbers in order from greatest to least, identify the values of particular numbers, and engage in an activity to compare numbers using manipulatives.

Young mathematicians record and analyze data. They will take attendance for their class and compare to other days. Then discuss ways to count who is present. They may also show the amount of students present using fractions.

Students practice grade level math skills. In this math lesson, students solve math facts on index cards and collaboratively arrange them in numerical order on a jump rope. Correct order earns the team a chance to physically move towards...

Learners engage in a lesson that is concerned with the standard of comparing the quantities of whole numbers using different strategies from the concrete to the abstract. They count objects and compare them, use symbols of comparison,...

Youngsters show understanding of accurate division of whole number, decimals, fractions, and percents using manipulatives (candies). They use white boards to demonstrate their understanding of representing numbers as defined in the...

Pupils work in groups that are engaged in different activities at different times. They watch the video "Madagascar" and collect data pertaining to the Fish Eagle's arm spam. They work together to perform mathematical computations such...
