Young mathematicians piece together the puzzle of fractions. Starting with the addition and subtraction of fractions with like denominators, this series of example problems and skills practice exercises transitions students...

The process requires the combination of several concepts. A video shows how individuals need several concepts to add rational expressions. Pupils must remember they need to find common denominators, combine like terms, and use the...

Your bakers might not realize that they need to know how to add with unlike denominators in order to figure out how much milk they need for a recipe. In order to make brownies and cookies, this lesson teaches how to find a common...

If you are teaching fractions to elementary learners this year, this Singapore Math presentation is essential to your curriculum. It addresses several basic fractions concepts in conceptual terms and figures, making each idea accessible...

Develop young mathematicians' ability to compare fractions with investigation into the number 1/2. After brainstorming a list of fractions equivalent to 1/2, children identify a pattern in the numerators and...

Engage young mathematicians in learning about fractions with this cross-curricular math and music lesson. After listening to and repeating different beat patterns, children realize that musical notes are just another way of representing...

The advantage of a virtual chocolate bar: it never melts. Learners use an interactive to share a chocolate bar among friends. Some challenge questions assess understanding of fractions in relation to this context.

Roll the dice with this activity and teach young mathematicians about probability. Record outcomes for rolling two number cubes in order to determine what is most likely to happen. Graph the data and investigate patterns in the results,...

Put your mathematicians to the test and see if they can solve this activity full of multi-step equations with rational numbers. Add, subtract, multiply, and divide with fractions and decimals to solve for x. The top of the activity has...

By creating a list of factors for two numbers, it is easier to see the greatest common factor. Each question in an interactive resource asks pupils to identify the greatest common factor for the numbers 24 and 36 in several...

Sharing is caring—especially with brownies! Young mathematicians use an interactive to split a batch of brownies between several friends given constraints. They answer some challenge questions to check that each friend has the correct...

Pupils determine the probability of one mayoral candidate winning given the other's chance. The interactive provides a circle graph to help visualize each candidate's percentages of winning.
