Fractions of Shapes
Modelling fractions through shapes is a great way to demonstrate this concept to beginners. Learners examine 12 shapes, each divided into an even number of equal segments (up to 16 parts). They shade in half of each shape by shading half...
Curated OER
Fractions of Shapes
Explore fractions visually through segmented shapes. Scholars examine sets of shapes and shade in the given fraction. Each shape is divided into the same number of segments as the denominator of the desired fraction, so beginners aren't...

Fractions Shapes
Let the class color. The video shows two different types of fraction of shapes problems. Pupils learn to shade a given fraction of a shape along with determining the fraction of a shape that is shaded. Learners practice the skill with...

Pizza Fractions
Students are introduced to fractions by completing 2 pages of problems with a pizza theme. They complete a chart where they name the fractional part they see in pizzas, then shade the pizzas to solve 1o word problems.

Fractions of Shapes
In this fractions of shapes worksheet, students shade in the correct fraction of nine shapes with numerators from 1 to 5 and denominators from 2 to 8.
Curated OER
Understanding Visual Fractions
Visualize fractions using segmented shapes. The five shapes here are each divided into equal parts, with some parts shaded. Mathematicians match the shapes to the fraction represented by the shaded region. This is a good way to introduce...
Curated OER
Understanding Visual Fractions
These shapes give scholars an excellent chance to see numerators and denominators in a visual way. They examine segmented shapes with portions colored in, determining what fraction the shaded section represents. For some problems, there...
Curated OER
Fractions
What fraction is represented by these shapes? Scholars examine fraction models as they apply basic fraction skills. The first two problems are guided; they look at a set of shapes with some shaded, circling (from three options) the...
Curated OER
Addition and Subtraction of Fractions
Students demonstrate how to solve addition and subtraction of fractions. In this fractions lesson, students use folded paper to shade in fractional parts and identify the sum of the parts shaded.
Curated OER
Fractions
Represent fractions visually using shape models. Scholars color in two sets of shapes to represent specific fractions: 2/3 and 3/4. The shapes are segmented into equivalent fractions for most of these, so scholars need to understand this...

Fractions
In this online fractional parts learning exercise, third graders read descriptions of fractions and choose the corresponding pictures, color fractional parts, identify shaded parts, draw lines to show fractions, and draw lines of...
Curated OER
Comparing Fractions
Master fractions and mixed numbers. Third graders study pairs of fractions and mixed numbers, then circle the largest of the two. In the second section, fractions are represented by shaded shapes. Excellent for assisting learners who...
Curated OER
Fractions of Shapes
In this fractions of shapes worksheet, students shade in the correct fraction of each shape, with denominators up to 8, for nine shapes.
Curated OER
Fractions of Shapes
In this fractions of shapes learning exercise, students write the correct fraction for the shaded area of nine different shapes, with a denominator up to 8.
Northern Arizona University
Adding and Subtracting Fractions
Pattern blocks and shapes demonstrate how to add and subtract fractions. By aligning blocks with different shapes, learners figure out how to create a whole, and then how to add and delete parts from that whole.

First Grade Math Review
In this first grade math review worksheet, 1st graders complete problems on place value, fractions, counting, shapes, and more. Students complete 25 multiple choice questions.
Curated OER
Understanding Visual Fractions
Learners can actually see the numerators and denominators as they examine three segmented shapes. For each, they must write a fraction representing the shaded regions of the shape. Only one of these can be simplified, so decide whether...
Curated OER
Understanding Visual Fractions
Fractions should be visual for beginners; give scholars a few different approaches through these five problems. First, they examine two shapes with shaded sections, writing a fraction to represent the shaded portion. Next, mathematicians...
Curated OER
Naming Fractions
Early learners investigate fractions and review the definitions of numerator and denominator on the chalkboard. They complete a "Naming Fractions" worksheet which is included in the lesson.
Curated OER
Recognizing Equivalent Fractions
Project this visual fraction problem for the entire class, covering up the explanation below. Learners examine two rectangles segmented into equal parts, each with part shaded. They convert each into fractions and reduce to lowest terms...
Curated OER
Comparing Fractions and Equivalence
Which fraction is greater than? Less than? There are 10 problems here that give scholars a visual approach to comparing fractions. They start by writing the fractions represented in a shaded shape. Then, they begin comparing visual...
