Learners identify music notes. In this music notes lesson, students toss bean bags between partners the number of times of a note (quarter, half, dotted half, etc) value.  Learners also practice underhand tosses. 

Students describe parts of a fraction and make equivalent fractions. They review parts of a fraction using a pizza, make equivalent fractions, and play the review game Fraction Fairway.

In this beginning fractions worksheet, students follow the directives of eight equations that ask the students to shade in a certain percentage of each shape. Students then write the fraction that represents each shaded portion.

For this fractions worksheet, students complete different kinds of fraction problems. Students complete 50 problems total where they solve, shade, and put numbers into a chart.

For this mixed and improper fractions worksheet, students complete clues where they figure out the mixed or improper fraction. Students complete 6 problems.

Students explore parts of a whole. In this fraction lesson, students determine what makes a fair share. Working with manipulatives, students solve mathematical problems containing fractions.

Students compare whole and fractional numbers using <, >, or =, with manipulatives and drawings.

In this parts of a group set of worksheet, students determine how many shapes are shaded in sets and writ the fraction for each. Sheets are set up 8 problems per page, 5 pages plus answers.

This fractions PowerPoint enables students to understand the concept of mixed numbers. The slides contain examples of mixed numbers and improper fractions, along with illustrations of fractional parts. This is an effective tool for...

Young scholars identify the numerator and denominator of a fraction.

Students create a set of fraction circles using a paper folding technique. They fold 10 inch circles of paper into the indicated fractions, identify the fractions, and use them to show equivalency.

Students observe and discuss the following musical terms and their symbols: staff, measure, bar line, double bar line, treble clef, bass clef, time signature, common time, cut time, quarter note, half note, dotted half note, whole note,...

In this fraction learning exercise, students circle the fraction that shows which part of each part of 4 items is shaded. They examine the sets which are made up of clip art pictures of sea creatures. They write the fraction that shows...

In this fraction worksheet, students circle the fraction that shows what part of each of 4 sets of sea creatures is shaded. They fill in the fraction that names the portion of the set that is shaded in the last 4 sets.

In this fraction worksheet, 3rd graders write the fraction that is shaded in both numbers in words. They fill in the blanks with what they would write to name the fraction and what they would say.

For this fraction worksheet, 3rd graders write the fraction that is shaded in both numbers in words. They fill in the blanks with what they would write to name the fraction and what they would say.

In this equivalent fractions worksheet, students fold a sheet in paper, creating and shading the fraction 2/3, then complete a set of questions/problems about folding to create other fractions. Answers on page 2.

Pupils are introduced to the problem by playing a guessing game of "I am a number, which is half of 6 and 6, what am I?" They explain their answers and see if anyone else had an alternate solution checking for reasonableness.

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.

Third graders discover fractions through the use of pattern blocks, literature, website activity and making a fractional pizza.

Pupils recognize coins are worth a fraction of a dollar. They represent the value of different coins by shading in their equivalent fractional parts in the circle. They understand that fractions are part of a whole.
