Young mathematicians may not love fractions, but do they love sandwiches? How about cake? Use this visual fractions activity to represent fractions in a relatable way. Scholars start by coloring segmented shapes to indicate halves and...

A one page worksheet for early fraction learners. They check 3 diagrams in which a shape is analyzed and the indicated part is marked as: one half, one third, or one quarter.

Introduce fractions as a part/whole relationship. The slides in this resource show whole objects, half objects, and then relate the images to their numeric equivalent. This is a simple and basic introduction that uses a variety of...

For this fractions worksheet, students shade in a half or a quarter of each of the six different shapes.

In this telling time activity, students draw lines to match each analog clock face to the digital clock that says the same time. All times are to the nearest half or quarter hour.

Focus on halves, thirds, and fourths in these visual fraction activities. Scholars begin by examining a grid with various expressions of the three fractions displayed in the grid squares. They color-code the grid to indicate which...

A fabulous lesson on fractions awaits your young mathematicians. In it, learners are invited to explore the world of fractions by accessing websites that have educational activities and worksheets embedded in them. Some excellent,...

Lower elementary learners recognize solid shapes distributed for making fractions. Each individual uses a wheel and determine which part of a fraction is missing. This is a great lesson for your visual learners!

Start simple by using a shape-partitioning worksheet. Scholars begin by segmenting basic shapes in halves and quarters. On the second page, they move on to more complex shapes, such as a heart and a cross, also partitioning them in half...

Little ones identify the US quarter and explore the concept of one-fourth or one-quarter. Using real coins or coin manipulatives, they divide a square piece of paper into quarters, discuss halves and quarters, and create a design that...

In this telling time worksheet, students practice reading time and describing time in at least two ways. Students must read clocks and also write the number of a time given. Student end the worksheet with a problem solving activity.

In this counting instructional activity, students count forward and backwards in halves as directed by given numbers. An answer key and website reference are given.

Students explore tessellations. In this shapes and geometry lesson, students describe the attributes of many of the shapes displayed on an Elmo. Students create examples of tessellations using pattern blocks.

In this recognizing the fraction 1/2 worksheet, students observe blank bars and fill them in showing different ways to make one-half. Students answer eight questions.

In this coin conversion activity, students convert a set of money amounts shown in quarter and half dollars to equal amounts shown in cents. Answers are included on page 2.

Have your class play concentration memory games using analog and digital clocks. Second graders become little experts with time telling to the minute, quarter, half, and hour. Use as a fun Friday treat as well as other...

A visual measuring exercise that lends itself nicely to an all-class warm up, especially as it doesn't provide room for scholars to write in answers on the sheet itself. They examine 10 rulers and determine the length in either inches,...

How can you tell how many thirds are in a whole? Or twelfths? Use a fraction strips worksheet to visualize how many parts are in one whole.

Second graders identify the hour and minute hands. They tell time by the hour, nearest quarter hour, half hour, and determine the relationships of time (e.g. minutes in hour, days in a month, weeks in a year). They create over-sized...

In this mathematics learning exercise, students identify how to solve by doubling and halving. They use strategies like doubling and thirding to calculate answers to each of the equations on the sheet.

What a great way to explore fractions! Learners answer a series of questions related to three word problems involving fractions. They are required to use a diagram to describe their results.

Fractions can be difficult to understand. In this introduction to fractions worksheet, students determine meaning, identify terms, and problem solve fractions. Fraction fiends solve eight problems. An excellent resource!

After your math classes have been introduced to fractions (especially those with denominators of two, four, and eight), introduce them to fractions on a number line with this instructional activity. Using a meter length of tape, show...

If you have The Hershey Chocolate Candy Bar book, reading it makes an alluring anticipatory activity for a lesson on fractions. Learners use paper cutouts to consider the concept of thirds. The lesson concludes with a Bingo-style...
