Help your class better understand the concept of fractions as part/whole with this interesting presentation. Fractions are likened to part/whole of a set of objects. A set of jewels is displayed, where one out of the three jewels is red,...

Calling all fraction novices! Use sets of objects to introduce scholars to fractions before they even have learned about numerators and denominators (but this is a great way to introduce these terms!). The first section has four...

A well-composed and professional resource can be a wonderful way to add importance to a topic. This presentation is very well done and acts as an assignment which can be completed individually or during whole-class instruction....

Learn how to identify equivalent fractions by using divisors. After reading and discussing the skill, young mathematicians solve two problems using visual fraction models, and then solve eight equivalent fraction problems...

Compose and decompose sets of 13 and 14 and compare sets of each with your little learners. They use objects to construct sets of 13 and 14, record their answers, and compare sets in several different ways.

Young mathematicians use fraction names and symbols to describe fractional parts of whole objects or sets of objects. They construct concrete models of fractions, and compare fractional parts of whole objects in a problem situation using...

It's time to crack open that piggy bank and see what's inside. First, count up the pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters, identifying what fraction of them are dimes. Then calculate the total value of the coins, writing another fraction...

Fractions can be tricky, and there is no better way to tackle tricky topics than with a visual representation. Intended for learners in grades two and three, this set of printable worksheets provides a variety of fractions represented in...

Math can be satisfying for the mind and the stomach! Incorporate slices of pizza into your fractions instructional activity with a set of informative resources. After a brief guided instructional activity on comparing and ordering...

Scholars will compare fractions using objects and pictures. They view pre-made pictures and concrete objects of fractions. Then use small white boards to draw pictorial representations of fractions.

Squares can be magic. Pupils use their knowledge of addition of positive and negative rational numbers to create a 3 X 3 magic square where the sums are 1. Scholars create addition and multiplication expressions with a set of rational...

Reinforce concepts and encourage learner engagement with a collection of math games, science experiments, and cross curricular activities. In one fun resource, learners sort objects, keep a diary of everyday fractions, play a game using...

Students study fractions. In this equivalent fractions lesson, students utilize fraction strips to enhance their understanding of equivalent fractions. They watch a demonstration and then work independently with their own set of fraction...

Young mathematicians are introduced to fractions in a unit that helps them to understand parts of a whole.

This first of twelve algebra 2 resources provides a broad review of many algebra 1 concepts through a number of separable lessons and labs. Starting with the real number system and its subsystems, the sections quickly but thoroughly...

Fifth graders use Cuisenaire rods in order to discover how to represent fractions with real objects. In this lesson on fractions, 5th graders first examine and learn the colors, lengths, and numerical values of each rod; then, students...

Three, two, one...liftoff! Elevate math skills to new heights while having a blast. A great resource that combines entertainment and education for children of all ages.

Help your third graders become familiar with equivalent fractions for one-half by having them create a quilt. They will use triangles to create a quilt of equivalent fractions over a period of 6 days. As they create the quilt pieces they...

In this fractions worksheet, students circle 1/2 of 3 different sets of objects. Answers and a link to additional activities are included on page 2.

In this fractions worksheet, learners solve 7 problems in which the fractional part of a set of objects is given to show each of the two colors in the set.

Fourth graders develop a conceptual understanding of fractions and begin to add and subtract fractions with like denominators. Included is a worksheet to assess readiness and a teacher's checklist showing class understanding at a...

Students complete a worksheet.  In this fractions lesson, students review their knowledge of fractions, define equivalent fractions, see examples of equivalent fractions and practice making equivalent fractions.

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

Students practice identifying equivalent fractions. In this fractions lesson, students participate in a card game for 2 to 4 players in which 52 index cards are labeled with 13 sets of equivalent fractions. Students take turns matching...
