Learners calculate equivalent fractions, solve the addition of fractions of like and unlike denominators, and compare fractions using fraction strips. They fold paper strips into equal parts, thirds, sixths, ninths, and twelfths, and...

Students determine the common denominator of two unlike fractions. They practice adding fractions and finding equivalent fractions of numbers. They compare and contrast different types of equations involving fractions and construct...

Add and subtract fractions with common denominators! In this fractions instructional activity, upper graders review what they already know about fractions, use manipulatives to compare fractions, and add and subtract fractions.

Students investigate the differences when using decimals, fractions, and percents. They focus on the process of using them in real problems and how to convert them from one form to another.

This activity has a little of everything. Compare fractions, determine if numbers are less than, greater than, or equal to. Then practice lining up the decimals to add and subtract decimal numbers. Then multiply decimals remembering to...

Upper elementary and middle schoolers work with the concept of probability. They are introduced to the concept of chaos. Learners graph and analyze using a line plot, work with mean, and are introduced to the concept of variance.

Young learners start out by going to the board to draw lines through shapes to identify halves. Then they are given a square of paper and are directed to fold the paper into halves and then into fourths. They color the halves...

Test your scholars' knowledge of a multitude of concepts with an assessment aligned to the California math standards. Using the exam, class members show what they know about the four operations, positive and negative numbers, statistics...

Fifth graders need concrete experiences to introduce a unit on multiplying fractions by fractions. A strip of paper is used to create a number line and represent 5/6. It is folded first in half, and then in quarters. After unfolding,...

Roll the dice with this activity and teach young mathematicians about probability. Record outcomes for rolling two number cubes in order to determine what is most likely to happen. Graph the data and investigate patterns in the results,...

Fifth graders explore measurement. In this measurement lesson, 5th graders review fractions, simplifying and using rulers to practice measuring by inches and centimeters. Students are shown how to measure and given a...

In this fractions worksheet, students put fractions in order, and solve fraction problems. Students complete 5 ordering of fraction problems.

In this fractions, understanding and reading worksheet, students follow the directions and shade in the fractions requested on two pictures and then match nine fractions to their pictures.

In this estimation worksheet, students estimate 7 given fractions to the nearest whole number. Answers are included on page 2.

Young scholars construct a book to illustrate number concepts. They write their numbers on a sheet of paper. Students in grade 1 discuss counting to 100 by different numbers. Pupils in grades (2-4) write basic addition or subtraction...

Sixth graders engage in an investigation about the concepts related to fractions. They read, represent, compare, and order proper and improper fractions, and mixed numbers. They demonstrate an understanding of relationships involving...

Can you tell how tall someone is just by looking at their feet? In this activity, young mathematicians measure their height, arm span, and foot size, graph their findings, and answer questions about how these measurements are related....

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,...

Practice your fourth grade math concepts with a series of flash cards. Covering topics such as place value, decimals, fractions, measurement, and many more, the flash cards can help learners of any level with their comprehension. The...

Put on your thinking caps because middle school math has never been more interesting in this huge resource full of thought provoking questions. Written as a newsletter, the resource has 10 two-page newsletters with a variety of...

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

Students discover fractions by creating models. In this fractions lesson, students read Give Me Half! by Stuart J. Murphy and view a video about what fractions actually represent. Students divide a square piece of paper a certain amount...

In this division worksheet, students solve algebraic problems containing fractions. This one-page worksheet contains 11 problems. Answers are provided. This worksheet may be completed on-line or produced in printed form.

Students explore tangram puzzles. In this tangram fraction lesson, students read Grandfather Tang and then practice solving tangram puzzles. Students identify fractions of the pieces of the tangram puzzles and then create a design using...
