Here is a comparing and ordering fractions learning activity that extends young mathematicians understanding of fractions with like and non-like denominators. By representing and explaining each fraction in a picture or diagram, learners...

Students practice comparing and ordering fractions, mixed numbers, and decimals. In this fractions, mixed numbers, and decimals lesson, students examine a decimal place value chart compared to a whole number place value chart. They...

Investigate equivalent fractions with your class. They compare and order fractions. Then they work cooperatively in groups to experiment and problem solve with fractions using a game format. Multiple resources are provided.

An extensive lesson explores equivalent fractions and is intended for three 60-minute periods. Young mathematicians compare and order fractions with like and unlike denominators. Included are worksheets, assessments, and answer sheets;...

Base ten blocks serve as visual representations of numbers that include decimals to the hundredths place. Children compare and order decimals in their math journal as they build the corresponding numbers with base ten blocks.

Give scholars the opportunity to show what they know about ordering fractions, decimals, and percents with a five-page, eight-problem independent practice. With clear instructions and supportive advice, learners are bound for a...

Identify, compare, and order fractions with a hands-on learning tool. Fraction strips are a great way to help young mathematicians understand and visualize fraction values. The worksheet can be made into an activity in which pupils cut...

Students practice ordering fractions. In this fractions lesson, students determine how to tell when a fraction is close to 1, 1/2 and other various fractions. Students use benchmarks to order fractions.

Second graders use shapes to create various fractions.  In this fractions lesson, 2nd graders define a fraction, visit a website where they make fractions using various shapes, and use a fraction square set to create and name...

Learners solve word problems using number sense. They convert fractions to decimals and mixed numbers. Pupils determine if a given fraction is greater or less than another fraction, and order numbers on a number line.

Have your class demonstrate their ability to compare fractions with this short multiple-choice assessment. Using the fractions 9/8 and 9/4, the young scholars first make comparisons using both words and the greater than/less than signs....

Kids will compare creating fractions from pieces of paper to chips. They begin with a fractional part and work back to a whole. Then order fractions from smallest to largest. They also complete a worksheet to find the missing pieces to...

Fourth graders compare and order fractions. In this comparing and ordering fractions instructional activity, 4th graders make fraction strips from construction paper but pretend that they are candy bars. They use the strips to compare...

Compare fraction models to fractions on a number line in an interactive that uses pumpkin pies as the model. Pupils look at pumpkin pie models to determine their improper fraction value. They use their knowledge to answer five questions...

Explore how to make a number line and how to mark the numbers along the number line using fraction and decimal notation. Your scholars will compare and order fractions and decimals and find their appropriate position on the number line.

Conquer any irrational fears you might have of irrational numbers. As class members investigate how to represent numbers geometrically, they learn about rational and irrational numbers, including approximating and ordering rational...
