Fractions Teacher Resources

Create a benchmark. Pupils view key benchmark fractions and their equivalent decimal and percentage representations. The video shows the family of fractions of halves, thirds, fourths, fifths, eighths, and tenths. For each fraction,...

This PowerPoint instructs students on how to solve a fraction multiplication problem. The slides address the steps in solving a fraction multiplication problem, along with examples. The steps are clearly stated and easy to understand....

It just doesn't seem right to lose points when answer a question incorrectly. Well, that's what this word problem is all about. So calculate how many incorrect answers the team gave. Don't forget to flip the inequality when dealing with...

Could anyone really eat 15 feet of a sub sandwich in one day? That's how much this math problem says he ate. He actually started out with a bigger sub sandwich. How big was it to start? The instructor uses a table to illustrate how you...

If a candy bar costs 3/4 of a dollar, can your mathematicians figure out the cost in cents? After watching this animated video, your learners will see that every fraction can be a decimal and every decimal can be a fraction. The video...

Adding fractions with a common denominator is no more difficult than adding whole numbers. Individuals watch a short video that shows examples of how to add fractions. The fractions have common denominators, which makes combining them a...

Let the video take away any issues with adding and subtracting fractions. Scholars review how to add and subtract fractions by rewriting the fractions using a common denominator. They also see how adding and subtracting mixed numbers...

Help mathematicians understand the term of as a signal for multiplication when it comes to fractions. They complete 48 practice problems finding various fractions of whole numbers. They'll come across 1/2, 1/3, 1/4,...

There is only one variable in this word problem. Yeah! So unpack the words and write them as a mathematical expression. Then make sure to use the order of operations to solve and arrive at the solution.

Sometimes you only need part of the whole. Viewers of a short video learn how to determine fractions of amounts, such as 3/4 of 20. The video starts with more familiar unit fractions and then progresses to non-unit fractions. The...

The teacher draws a visual on the white board to show how to change a whole number into a fraction by borrowing. This is necessary because the original written fraction is too small to subtract the second fraction.

Duane draws a visual to show how to change a whole number into a fraction before subtracting.

What's the proper way to convert fractions? A short video shows three quick examples of converting an improper fraction to a mixed number. Pupils practice doing their own conversions to better understand the skill.

Not all fractions are created equal. Scholars review how to create equivalent fractions by multiplying the numerator and denominator by the same factor. A short instructional video covers a few examples of the concept.

In this multiplying fractions and whole numbers practice worksheet, students sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve 6 story problems.

Visual learners will benefit from this approach to teaching equivalent fractions, completing problems in multiple steps to observe the process more clearly. They complete eight problems.

Become wholly versed in dealing with fractions. After briefly reviewing how to find a fractional part of a whole, the narrator of an instructional video describes how to find the whole, given the part and the fraction. Viewers watch as...

Love this! Kids play to practice determining which fraction is larger. Each set of fractions are represented in numeric form as well as how they appear on a fraction circle. This is a great way to show learners the differences between...

In this compare and order fractions and decimals practice worksheet, 6th graders sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve 6 story problems.

Learners apply their math skills as they respond to five questions that require them to convert decimals to fractions.

Here is an interesting presentation on fractions, quantities, and factoring. A game called four in a row is presented as a way of providing a fun way for learners to practice mathematical skills in these areas. Along with the game, there...

Multiply your understanding of multiplying fractions. A short lesson teaches pupils how to multiply fractions. By using fraction models, they get a better understanding of the concept.

Fractions, decimals, and percents all say the same thing! Show your classes how to convert between the three forms using visual and numeric representations. Then lead them to an understanding of scientific notation.

The next lesson in a math series builds off the previous one in which learners estimated fraction amounts using fraction bars. Here, pupils view equivalent fractions with unlike denominators using fraction bars. Lastly,...
