Create your own adventure story ... well, not really. The fifth lesson in a 21-part series has pairs create story contexts for division problems. The lesson presents a step-by-step process for pupils to follow in writing such stories.

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...

Don't table the resource on writing expressions for relationships in tables. Scholars investigate relationships between variables and write algebraic expressions involving multiplication and division. These expressions help solve...

Young math wizards solve two story problems in which simple division (with leftovers) is used. They draw pictures or write to explain their answers.

Help your learners gain meaningful understanding of dividing fractions using fraction models. The activity includes nine problems which are sequenced to show how the fraction division algorithm evolves. Have students use graph paper or...

How many rabbit costumes can be made? This is the focus question of an activity that requires scholars to use multiplication and division of fractions to solve a real-world problem. They determine the amount of fabric necessary for eight...

Here's an assessment task that's better than watching a show. Young mathematicians solve word problems involving multiplication and division with equal groups. They must find the total number of attendees on a trip to a theater based on...

In this division worksheet, students use counters to solve 6 problems pertaining to basic division facts. These are story problems.

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...

In this number manipulation worksheet, students solve 4 different types of problems that include number manipulation. First, they use division, multiplication, addition, or subtraction to make each set of numbers into equations which...

Obviously, four is the perfect number when you're playing Four Square. Scholars first use multiplication and division to solve a set of problems on the number of balls needed, the number of games, and the number of players required for a...

Not only will your class practice solving addition, multiplication, and division word problems, but they also have the opportunity to try to put the mathematical expression into words. These skills will help your learners with future...

In this algebra worksheet, learners manipulate integers to add, subtract, multiply and divide using order of operation. They rewrite word problems and solve for the unknown. There are 24 questions with an answer key.

Our teacher told us the formula had one-third, but why? Using manipulatives, classmates try to explain the volume formula for a pyramid. After constructing a cube with six congruent pyramids, pupils use scaling principles from...

It does not divide into 360 evenly, so it cannot work. The resource extends pupils' thinking about rotational symmetry. By asking for a figure with a rotational symmetry of a seemingly impossible angle, the activity requires learners to...

In this multiplication/division alphabetical order worksheet, students alphabetize a set of 12 multiplication/division vocabulary words. Worksheet has links to additional activities.

Using division can be challenging for some young learners. However, these problems that are simple division without remainders, are designed to help your learners both conceptualize and visualize the problem before solving.

In this fractions activity, students divide pictures into halves to introduce them to fractions. Students complete 3 sets of problems.

Two halves make a whole. One whole makes two halves. Have your youngsters use their division by two knowledge to solve these story problems.

Don't use use a fraction of the resource — use it all! Scholars attempt a set of five problem-of-the-month challenges on fractions. Levels A and B focus on creating fractions and equivalent fractions, while Levels C, D, and E touch on...

In this words into smaller words worksheet, 1st graders divide words into smaller words by putting them inside a picture of a pecan and splitting them up. Students split up 4 pecans.

In need of an all-inclusive seventh grade math resource? Packed full of the topics necessary for Pre-Algebra the packet includes practice problems with different difficulty levels. It works great for any supplemental use needed...

Given a budget, a list of items to put in a treat bag, and how much each item costs might be a little difficult for your students at first. However, these are all going into a treat bag for Madeline's friends. What would your learners...

Make the cookies healthy. The assessment task asks pupils to determine the number of cookies they could make based on a given amount of ingredients. Given two sugar substitutes, learners determine which substitute would be better and...
