Visual models support young mathematicians as they deepen their fractional number sense in this elementary math lesson plan. Using fraction circle manipulatives, children explore basic unit fractions as they develop the...

Understanding when to divide by two or one-half can be confusing. Here is an activity that gives four different scenarios. It is up to your number crunchers to decide if they divide by two or one-half. The easiest way to approach the...

Did you know one half of a rectangle be represented in more than one way? Young mathematicians choose the rectangles that represents one half with an instructive worksheet.

Visual models support young mathematicians with exploring equivalent fractions. Starting with a quick warm-up problem, children go on to work through a series of guiding practice problems before working with a partner identifying and...

Young mathematicians may not love fractions, but do they love sandwiches? How about cake? Use this visual fractions activity to represent fractions in a relatable way. Scholars start by coloring segmented shapes to indicate halves and...

Is it half? There are three sections to this introductory fractions learning exercise focusing on halves. First graders begin by coloring half of five basic shapes, each of which already is divided into two parts. Next, they examine four...

How can you make the two halves symetric? Scholars use the concept of symmetry to complete five images which are only half-drawn. The fun part about this exercise is that they aren't copying geometric shapes. There is a face, sun, kite,...

Approach fractions with these visual models which serve to reinforce numerators and denominators as well as simplifying improper fractions. Scholars examine segmented shapes and fill in a fraction to represent the shaded region. For the...

How many different ways can you represent a whole? In a picture that represents six parts (two of which are shaded), learners are asked to label the parts appropriately to show how three different mathematical interpretations can be...

Upper elementary or middle schoolers will explore non-linear functions, graphing, and the curve of best fit through real-life data collection and trial analysis. They explore the concept of half-life and radioactive decay using M&Ms,...

Have your learners recently been introduced to telling time in Spanish? This worksheet provides an extremely quick review of half-hour time increments. It features both digital and analog time clocks, which is great practice! 

Sixth graders practice their fraction and number line skills by identifying where a given fraction is located on the line. Provide mathematicians with a colored pencil for easy identification of the fraction.

Enlargements make it bigger, right? A video shows viewers how to perform a basic dilation with a fractional scale factor. They learn how to use the scale factor to find the location of the transformed vertex by multiplying the horizontal...

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...

Reinforce fraction skills with a Christmas-themed math worksheet. Scholars solve three word problems using fraction circles that represent a holiday pie. 

Ours is to wonder why, not just to invert and multiply. The seventh installment of a 21-part module uses fraction models to help pupils understand why the invert-and-multiply strategy for dividing fractions works. They then work on some...

Introduce your math class to fractions with this activity. Six number lines are provided, and learners must fill in the missing numbers. Some blanks are whole numbers, and some are half numbers. Numbers up to 48 are shown.

Young scientists use a worksheet to help them perform a lab on the decay of a radioactive element. The worksheet serves as both a task guide and a lab sheet for pairs of learners. This activity requires a calculator and has excellent...

A set of worksheets prompts learners to practice solving fraction-based word problems. Each problem involves the division of whole numbers by unit fractions. As they work, mathematicians begin to see how division relates...

Use number lines to give kids a visual representation of various fractions. There are eight number lines provided, and each one grows in difficulty. The first one, for example, only has three points: zero, one half, and one. The last...

A one page worksheet for early fraction learners. They check 3 diagrams in which a shape is analyzed and the indicated part is marked as: one half, one third, or one quarter.

Early learners look at the pictures given and color one part to identify if it is 1/2 or 1/4. They then circle the correct fraction that they created.

Which ones are equivalent? Scholars examine four fraction models to determine which ones represent the same fraction. This is a great way to help kids with numerators and denominators, as they can physically count the total number of...

What time is it? It's time to learn how to read analog and digital clocks! There are three analog and two digital clock faces here, each reading a time on the hour or half-hour. Learners examine and match them to the written-out versions...
