Sixth graders explore using inverse operations to solve decimal and fraction problems. In this decimal and fraction lesson plan, 6th graders prepare ribbon for a part and need to cut it in equal lengths. Students analyze the problem.

Learners calculate the slope of parallel and perpendicular lines.In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between parallel and perpendicular lines. They graph their lines using the slope of the equation.

Sixth graders practice converting a fraction into a decimal and a percent. They explain relationships among rational numbers. They order and compare whole numbers, fractions (including mixed numbers), and decimals using a variety of...

For this ordering fractions worksheet, 6th graders use an online manipulative to aid them in ordering fractions. They complete 5 problems using the bounded fraction pointer online.

In this fraction worksheet, students practice multiplying fractions by whole numbers in 30 problems. They can click a box to show the answers if they complete the worksheet online.

Students complete activities to learn how to add fractions. In this fractions lesson, students complete a set of prior knowledge questions for fractions. Students then review fraction vocabulary while solving a fraction word problem.

Students develop a line graph based on distances that an RCX car drives in specified amounts of time. They then are given a specific amount of time for the car to drive and be asked to extrapolate the car's distance from the graph.

Students practice ordering fractions. In this fractions lesson, students determine how to tell when a fraction is close to 1, 1/2 and other various fractions. Students use benchmarks to order fractions.

Students discuss the nature of fractions and compare fractions based on a similar whole to determine relative size.

In this fraction worksheet, 6th graders compare and order fractions in order to solve 6 word problems. They work with problems that have like and unlike denominators.

In this fraction worksheet, students first read about how to find equivalent fractions, then find the missing numbers that would make pairs of fractions equivalent. Students then read about and simplify a st of 8 additional fractions.

In this prime factorization worksheet, learners find the prime factorization of numbers by using a factor tree. They compare fractions and identify equivalent fractions, and find the greatest common factor, order numbers, and convert...

Using a real-world example, this problem illustrates the thought process that learners need to engage in to understand adding mixed numbers with common denominators. First by looking at estimation, and then by drawing models that...

Determine the right mix of cans of cat food. The resource consists of an assessment task to determine the cost to feed two cats for a specific number of days and requires scholars to interpret remainders within a context....

It's assessment time! Determine your young mathematicians' understanding of elapsed time with this brief, five-question quiz.

Apply, apply, apply! A measurement activity applies a number of concepts to help learn a new construction. Scholars learn to divide a segment into n equal parts using a method that uses the Side Splitter Theorem and a method...

First there was pi and now there's e. A discovery-based lesson helps learners find a pattern in compound interest as the compounding period changes. Their investigation results in the discovery of the number e. The lesson is the first in...

Students complete a unit of lessons on the relationships between decimals, whole numbers, and fractions. They use paper strips to solve fraction problems, view and solve examples, and use calculators to convert fractions into decimal...
