Learners study how shapes can be divided into equal parts, that each part be equal to its counterpart, and combining parts equals one whole. They make the shapes out of modeling clay and take digital pictures of its parts to create an...

Sixth graders inspect M&M's to complete statistical data. Students interpret percent of colors represented. They convert data from decimals, fractions, and percents. Using the data, 6th graders create a bar graph and a circle graph.

Create models to demonstrate multiplication and division of fractions. Using fraction tiles to model fractions, pupils explore fractions on a ruler and use pattern blocks to multiply and divide. They also create number lines with fractions.

Express division using different expressions. Individuals learn to write division expressions both with and without the division symbol in the 13th instructional activity of a 36-part series. They consider both numerical and algebraic...

Rests. Eighth rests, quarter rests, and half rests are the focus of a one-page learning exercise that asks music theory learners to complete a series of measures with rests and bar lines.

Young analysts use real (provided) data from a class's test scores to practice using statistical tools. Not only do learners calculate measures of center and spread (including mean, median, deviation, and IQ range), but...

Solving systems of equations underpins much of advanced algebra, especially linear algebra. Developing an intuition for the kinds and descriptions of solutions is key for success in those later courses. This intuition is exactly what...

Students utilize chocolate to identify parts of a whole.  In this fractions lesson, students discover the vocabulary associated with fractions and practice dividing a chocolate bar into pieces based on fraction problems....

Students practice identifying common fractions using various manipulatives. They visit a visual fractions website and complete an activity. In the final activity, students create real-life problems.

Who knew Snickers® could be used to teach science? Give your budding earth scientists a chance to explore the Law of Superposition, in addition to a well-earned snack.

Students gain practice in the use of fractions, changing fractions, using equivalent fractions, and paying attention to detail. They divide a word into appropriate fractional parts and use equivalent fractions to correctly divide words.

Students gain practice in the use of fractions, changing fractions, using equivalent fractions, and paying attention to detail. They divide words into fractional parts. This is a fun way for kids to work with fractions.

Students use candy and pizza to identify concepts associated with fractions. They work together in groups to create fractions. They complete a worksheet individually to complete the activity.

Use visual shading and scenario questions to help your mathematicians divide fractions in this problem-solving worksheet! Students shade parts and solve, write multiplication and division sentences, solve word problems, and find...

All phenomena concerning magnets, their field lines and impact on objects are covered. The trivia surrounding field lines and the earth, electric charges, repulsion and attraction is plentiful. The slide show continues after twenty...

Everyone loves a good deal, and your mathematician's job is to calculate the original price when given the discount. A different type of problem than the traditional "find the percent change" has your learners working backwards to...

Students use candy bars, beef jerky, and brownies to represent different fractions. Students also use colored multi-link cubes or blocks to illustrate the same representations of fractions. Students work with a partner to create diagrams...

Students create and interpret line plots, bar graphs, and circle graphs. The lesson assumes mastery of conversions from fraction to decimal to percent, construction of angles, and at least an introduction to graphs displaying data.

Young scholars determine that a fraction is a part of a whole or part of a group. They write and read fractions and solve various fraction problems. They create their own fraction problem using colored candies for their classmate to solve.

In this math worksheet, students compute the range, mean, median and modal weight of candy bars from two machines. Students write a short essay about which machine is using too much chocolate and which is more reliable.

Review fractions with this colorful and motivating resource. Learners identify a fraction using a figure displayed in parts, answer word problems, and divide shapes into halves, quarters, and thirds.

Fifth and sixth graders use food and candy to help them represent division of fractions and develop algorithms to solve fraction problems. They discuss dividing whole numbers by fractions. Pupils use sticks and chocolate bars to...

Make learning fractions easy for your second and third graders! They refer to a picture of a sandwich cut in thirds to remember that all three pieces put together is one whole. Then they color in different horizontal bars to illustrate...

In this data collection worksheet, students read about how data is collected and organized. They also learn about a hypothesis. Students read through examples of different charts and then answer 23 questions pertaining to data...
