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

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...

In this fraction worksheet, students read about fractions as parts of a whole fraction strip at the top of the page. They write the fractions for each shaded part and each unshaded part of 7 fraction pictures. They shade the indicated...

In this fraction activity, learners find the whole when a portion is known. They apply the information to complete 4 problems. They use percentages of a whole in order to determine the value of the whole in 9 problems and finally, apply...

It's time to crack open that piggy bank and see what's inside. First, count up the pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters, identifying what fraction of them are dimes. Then calculate the total value of the coins, writing another fraction...

Pupils use visual models, numeric methods, and equations to solve percent problems. To complete the second installment of 20, they find the part given the percent and the whole, find the percent given the part and the whole, and find the...

In this fractional parts of a number worksheet, students read and solve 6 story problems that pertain to fractional parts of a whole number.

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...

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...

Whether used to introduce learners to fractions or as a comprehension assessment, this two-part, cross-curricular worksheet will give readers a chance to test their understanding of fractions.

Make learning fractions easy for your second and third graders! They refer to a picture of a sandwich cut in thirds to remember that all three pieces put together is one whole. Then they color in different horizontal bars to illustrate...

Reinforce the concept of fractions and decimals as part of a whole with a activity that begins with a mixed review, then goes into a three problem guided practice, and ends with a collaborative activity. The guided practice and activity...

Here is another way to illustrate division of a whole number by a unit fraction. In this case, the problem is asking if there are so many servings per cup, how many servings are in a package of multiple cups. Learners are to model their...

In this fractions worksheet, students solve 4 multi-step problems in which fractional parts of a whole are shaded. Students then show fractions on a number line and solve a problem with fractions and money. This was intended as online...

In this fractional parts of a whole worksheet, 5th graders examine different arrays that represent a unit. They tell what part of the whole each of given pictures represents, they measure and color fractional parts of a line, and tell...

Help your class practice writing fractions using this resource. This is a visually-appealing and motivating way to help learners practice this skill.

In this fraction activity, learners circle the fraction that shows which part of each part of 4 items is shaded. They examine the sets which are made up of clip art pictures of sea creatures. They write the fraction that shows the part...

In this fractional parts worksheet, students use division and multiplication to help them find the fractional parts of a number for the thirty questions. Students then answer two test prep word problems.

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:...

In this fractions activity, students use the shaded figures and write fractions based on the shaded area to the whole area. Students also learn how to draw pie models. Students divide the circle into fractions and color the right amount...

Focus on halves, thirds, and fourths in these visual fraction activities. Scholars begin by examining a grid with various expressions of the three fractions displayed in the grid squares. They color-code the grid to indicate which...

Cut it up into parts and make fractions. The short video provides a definition of fractions as being a representation of parts of a whole. Using drawings, the presentation shows how to determine the bottom and top numbers for a fraction...

In this problem solving activity, students learn to use a picture to find a fraction and compare two fractions. Students read 4 story problems about fractional parts of a whole and solve them by using the picture.

Here is a comparing and ordering fractions learning activity that extends young mathematicians understanding of fractions with like and non-like denominators. By representing and explaining each fraction in a picture or diagram, students...
