Useful as a speed math test or a homework assignment, this resource on equivalent fractions is sure to challenge your young learners. Thirty pairs of fractions prompt pupils to fill in the missing numerators and denominators to make each...

You don't have to be an ancient Egyptian to decipher fractions in this activity that focuses on adding fractions with unlike denominators and developing fraction number sense. Egyptians represented fractions differently than we do. They...

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...

Fifth and sixth graders compare decimals to the place-value structure in the base-ten number system. They represent fractions as parts of unit wholes, as parts of a set, as locations on a number line, and as divisions of whole numbers....

Use segmented shapes to introduce scholars to fractions before they even have learned about numerators and denominators (although this is a great way to introduce these terms!). The first section has four multiple-choice problems:...

Aunt Barb's salad dressing is a mixture of oil, vinegar, salt, herbs, and a pinch of math. Fifth graders add the fractional measurements of ingredients to find a total amount. The fractions have unlike denominators. After finding the...

Can Dan make a conjecture about dividing fractions with the same denominators? That is what your scholars are to determine. They must show that if the statement is true, they understand how the quantities were determined, and how...

Familiarize your young learners with the parts of a computer and some basic key terms relating to technology. As the teacher demonstrates using an LCD projector, class members practice moving a mouse, opening the Internet, typing in a...

Your fifth graders will appreciate the simple, direct explanations, examples, and practice exercises in this well-organized unit on fractions. Beginning with an introduction to fractions, the packet flows smoothly through the fraction...

Emerging statisticians develop the ability to make inferences from sample data while also working on proportional relationships in general. Here, young learners examine samples for bias, and then use random samples to make...

Let the resource quench your thirst for knowledge, like a vending machine that dispenses drinks. Future computer scientists develop an algorithm to identify the fewest number of coins that a vending machine could use in creating change....

Students use fractions strips to demonstrate addition and subtraction of fractions. They explore finding common denominations, examining equivalent fractions, and simplifying fractions. Students may work in groups or independently.

In this division of mixed fractions with unlike denominators worksheet, students problem solve twenty five equations while showing each step of their work.

In this addition and subtraction activity, students solve 15 problems in which they add or subtract with monomial denominators, binomial denominators, and complex fractions.

In this fraction subtraction worksheet, students find the common denominator in the problems and then subtract the fractions. Students solve 10 problems.

In this fraction worksheet, 4th graders focus on subtraction of fractions. Students solve 14 horizontal problems with like denominators.

In this college level Calculus worksheet, students review factoring, rationalization of a denominator, and functional notation to prepare for differentiation.  The two page worksheet contains six problems.  Answers are not...

Fifth graders explore common factors. In this factorization lesson, 5th graders discover the greatest common factor among two numbers in a game format. Students build on previous knowledge to determine the greatest common factor.

Students identify fraction terminology. Using the book, Eating Fractions, as a guide, students list the foods shared in the book. They experiment with string and Fruit by the Foot candy to increase their knowledge of equal fractions....

In this mixed numbers worksheet, 6th graders solve 20 different problems that include the division of mixed numbers. First, they change each mixed number to an improper fraction. Then, students multiply the reciprocal of the divisor,...

In this solving equations worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 21 different problems that include solving various equations that contain a variable on both sides of the equal sign. Then, students write an equations and solve it,...

In this rational numbers learning exercise, students solve and complete 25 different problems that include identifying numerous types of rational numbers. First, they place a greater than, less than or equal to symbol between the...

Students explore equivalent fractions. In this fractions lesson plan, students use strips of paper to recognize equivalent fractions. Students may complete an online activity on an interactive whiteboard as an assessment.

In this mixed numbers worksheet, 5th graders solve 10 mixed number subtraction problems. Helpful steps are included plus an example to guide them as they solve each problem.
