Mathematicians can embark on a math challenge. Fourteen pages of exercises for young algebra learners on fractions, decimals, and percentages let your students put their skills to the test.  

Divide fractions just like a model does. Pupils visualize the division of a fraction by a whole number by creating models. Scholars make the connection between dividing by a whole number and multiplication before practicing the skill...

Piece by piece young scholars build a basic understanding of fractions in a Common Core-designed elementary math lesson plan. Through a series of hands-on activities and journaling exercises, and with the help...

Challenging worksheets to drill your mathematicians as they crunch numbers to find the proportional relationship using fractions.

It is all about being equivalent. Class members convert between fractions, decimals, and percents. By using visual models, scholars verify their conversions in the 25th portion of a 29-part series.

Connect division with multiplication through the use of models. Groups solve problems involving the division of a whole number by a fraction using models. The groups share their methods along with the corresponding division and...

Use a unit approach in developing a fraction division strategy. The teacher leads a discussion on division containing units, resulting in a connection between the units and like denominators. Pupils develop a rule in dividing fractions...

No more inverting and multiplying to divide fractions. Applying concepts of measurement division from the previous lesson, pupils consider partitive division using fraction bars and number lines. They first convert fractions to like...

Extend percent understandings to include percents less than one and greater than 100. A great lesson has pupils build upon their knowledge of percents from sixth grade. They convert between fractions, decimals, and percents that are less...

Knowing the standard algorithm opens up a whole new world of division. Scholars learn how to convert division involving decimals to division involving whole numbers to use the standard algorithm. Knowing how to multiply with powers of...

Common Core mathematical practices require that young mathematicians not only know how to add fractions with unlike denominators, but also to recognize when adding fractions are appropriate for the word problem. Fifth graders are given...

Solving these percent problems is a matter of counting. Pupils find percents by counting the number of events that meet the criteria and the total number of possibilities. Participants create the ratio and convert it to a percent to...

Students discuss the nature of fractions and compare fractions based on a similar whole to determine relative size.

Calculate theoretical probabilities and compare them to experimental probabilities. Pupils build on their knowledge of experimental probabilities to determine theoretical probabilities. Participants work several problems with the...

Fill in the blanks to find the best discount! Groups complete a table of amounts and percents associated with sale items. Classmates then find the original cost, sale cost, discount amount, paid percent, or the discount percent...

The ninth installment of a 21-part module has pupils compare integers and rational numbers in decimal and fraction form. They match stories to number lines and compare values in the stories.

Fourth graders compare and order fractions in a fraction game activity. In this fraction game activity, 4th graders play a game that requires them to add fractions with like denominators and compare fractions. Students create posters...
