Supplement your lesson on improper fractions with this simple resource. Working on number lines labeled with whole numbers between 0 and 5, young mathematicians represent basic improper fractions with halves and thirds. The fractions...

Extend your class's ability to represent unit fractions on a number line with this challenging worksheet. Given two number lines, one labeled with zero and 1/4, the other with zero and 5/3, students must accurately locate the number one...

Four inequality statements are given for the same two negative numbers. The resource is a good practice for pupils to interpret statements of inequalities relative to the position on the number line. The objective is for pupils to learn...

This short problem with representing fractions on a number line is more than meets the eye. Labeled only with the numbers zero and 1/4, a number line is used to locate the fraction 2/3. A solution can be found in multiple ways, but young...

Take number comparison problems to the next level. The class must add first to determine the numbers in each set and then use the appropriate symbol to show which number is greater than, less than, or equal. There are 10 problems and 1...

A seemingly simple question that reveals a lot about a student's understanding of fractions. In finding an answer, learners compare fractions with different denominators that are both greater and less than one. No number line is...

Strange and unique shapes are found everywhere in the world around us. The final video in this series teaches young learners to break complex shapes into rectangles when finding their area. This process is clearly modeled as the...

Those tricky symbols for greater than and less than have stumped young mathematicians for generations. Mr. Great is a paper plate cut into a Pac-Man shape that can be used to keep track of which direction the symbols should face. This...

Different scale factors produce different results. Show your learners the difference between scale factors greater than and less than one and their different results. The video emphasizes using division to find the scale factor between...

To go on a field trip, Mrs. Robinson’s class needs to raise at least 80 dollars. Given four possible solutions, it is up to your number crunchers to use a number line to figure out which solutions would allow Mrs. Robinson’s class to go...
