If you are teaching fractions to elementary learners this year, this Singapore Math presentation is essential to your curriculum. It addresses several basic fractions concepts in conceptual terms and figures, making each idea accessible...

Ready, set, go! Individuals practice converting rational numbers between fractions, decimals, and percents. A speed game has teams match the three forms of rational numbers on a number line.

What a fun way to practice fractions! Your class engages in a fraction hunt in which they use words to find clues to a treasure hidden in the classroom. The treasure, in this case is a Mars bar. However, it could be anything, including a...

Students translate problem situations into diagrams, models, and numerals using whole numbers, fractions, mixed numbers, decimals, and percents. They identify that numbers in different forms are equivalent or not equivalent using whole...

Students demonstrate how to solve addition and subtraction of fractions. In this fractions instructional activity, students use folded paper to shade in fractional parts and identify the sum of the parts shaded.

Determine the right mix of cans of cat food. The resource consists of an assessment task to determine the cost to feed two cats for a specific number of days and requires scholars to interpret remainders within a context....

Apply, apply, apply! A measurement activity applies a number of concepts to help learn a new construction. Scholars learn to divide a segment into n equal parts using a method that uses the Side Splitter Theorem and a method...

Elementary and secondary learners investigate various concepts related to the study of fractions. They use word problems during the introduction to parts of a fraction and proceed to some of the basic operations of using fractions. The...

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 compare and order fractions and decimals using a number line. They use rules of conversion to determine equivalencies competing problems accurately and plot points on the number line that represent the correct order of the initial...

Where is the line of symmetry in these shapes? Review this concept using the visual guide at the top of the page, explaining how some shapes have multiples lines. Consider demonstrating this concept with large cut-outs, physically...

Many problems in life have more than one possible solution, and the same is true for advanced mathematics. Scholars solve seven problems that all have at least two solutions. Then three higher-level thinking questions challenge them to...

Who doesn't love cookies? For this lesson, learners follow a recipe to make cookies, practicing their ability to compare fractions as they go. This is a wonderful way to motivate your class to practice this important skill.

In this fractions worksheet, students solve 6 story problems. Students will need to change fractions have common denominators before comparing them.

The object of this activity is to compute how far Rosa ran to school. Given in the exercise is the fractional number of miles between home and school and the fractional distance Rosa ran. The commentary shows several ways to have your...

Young scholars investigate the concept of division and how numbers fit into specific patterns while practicing the skills finding equivalent fractions. They practice solving different division sentences while answering questions asked...

Upper graders explore fractions to determine a fractional part of a whole. They are given 30 pieces of popcorn and asked to divide it into halves, thirds, etc. Students practice representing the popcorn groups as a numerator and...

This unit on fractions allows for upper-aged elementary learners to explore ways to find the greatest common factor and least common multiple of two numbers. Ultimately, young mathematicians will be able to identify equivalent fractions,...

Let's paint the town equal parts yellow and violet, or simply brown. Pupils calculate the amount of blue and red paint needed to make six quarts of brown paint. Individuals then explain how they determined the percentage of the brown...

Using a simple technique, learners practice identifying integers on a number line. As numbers, both positive and negative, are pointed to, they name them. This could be part of anticipatory set before a lesson on integers.

Twelve chapters cover a multitude of math concepts found in the Common Core standards for sixth grade. Each title provides a brief explanation of what you will find inside the chapter—concepts from which you can click on and learn more...

Students write a fraction to tell what part of a region is shaded, name the numerator and denominator of a fraction and identify equivalent fractions.

Mathematicians make representations of fractional parts of a whole and learn that a decimal is another way to represent a fractional part. Understanding is extended by comparing and ordering fractions and decimals on a number line. This...

In this fractions instructional activity, students solve and complete 4 different types of problems. First, they cancel the fractions to their lowest terms. Then, students complete each equivalent fraction. In addition, they mark each of...
