Learners find the midpoint between two numbers, shade fractional amounts of rectangles as well as decimal amounts of rectangles, and explain their mathematical reasoning in words. The assessment is a great way to check for understanding...

Spin the wheel of the fraction contraption and learn about equivalent fractions! After constructing their own spinners, kids use printable pizzas to represent fractions that are equal in value.

Let's use math to solve an argument. Jon and Charlie are debating about who can run farther, but who is right? That's what your class will figure out as they apply their understanding of fractions to this real-life situation. A simple,...

What makes fractions equivalent? Learners first use an interactive that shows equivalent fractions with fraction models and number lines. They then play a game where they must match sets of equivalent fractions with different denominators.

Students explore fractions. In this fraction lesson, students play an interactive game and use manipulatives to practice working with fractions.

Five questions challenge scholars to add mixed numbers. A tool creates a visual model that separates whole numbers from fractions parts. Problem types include fill in the blank, true or false, and discussion.  

In this fractions worksheet, students will model the fractions by coloring or shading a portion of a four-frame. Students will color similar fractions in different ways.

In this fractions worksheet, learners shade in the part of the fraction that is shown to them. Students shade in 9 fractions based on the fraction that is given to them. All fractions are part of "fifths".

In this fraction activity, students will model the fractions by coloring or shading a portion of a six-frame. Students will color similar fractions in different ways.

In this modeling fourths worksheet, students look at shaded fraction models and write the correct numerator for each. All fractions are fourths.

First-time fraction fiends make paper-folding models for unit and non-unit fractions. They follow teacher-led directions to make models that show  2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 equal parts. An array of fraction review worksheets are...

In this identifying halves and thirds activity, students observe a model of the shaded part as one third and use it to write halves and thirds fractions for other models. Students solve nine problems.

In this drawing a model to multiply fractions with unlike denominators, students review the steps for drawing the models and apply them to solve a word problem and equations. Students solve seven problems.

For this recognizing halves of objects worksheet, students view a model showing one shaded part out of two, and write the fraction describing other models. Students solve 6 problems.

In this writing fourths worksheet, students observe fraction squares and write the numerator for the shaded part. Students solve twelve problems.

Learners explore number sense by participating in a class fraction game. In this number value lesson, students utilize strips of paper with fractions written on them and conduct a trivia game in which teams challenge each other. Learners...

Third graders complete a worksheet.  In this fractions lesson, 3rd graders review fraction vocabulary, use the SmartBoard to divide fractions and complete stations where they work with fractional parts of a whole.

Fifth graders examine the function of the lungs and create a model of the lungs. Using a plastic cup, drinking straw, plastic bag, small balloon, and a rubber band, they follow step-by-step directions to construct simulated lungs. ...

High schoolers are able to construct a candy model of DNA. They are able to list all of the parts of DNA that they investigated earlier. Students are able to describe what each part of DNA does. They create an edible model of DNA...

Students name and draw fractions by using their fractions circles. In this rational numbers and fraction lesson plan, students name mixed numbers and improper fractions using their fraction circles.

In this fraction worksheet, 3rd graders color in fraction strips to model each of 9 fractions that have 5 as a denominator. They color or shade fraction strips; coloring similar fractions in different ways.

How old is the plant? Here is a task that presents the exponential decay function for carbon 14 in a plant. Pupils use the function to estimate the amount of carbon 14 in the plant when it died and analyze the function to find what...
