Elementary schoolers generate and manipulate fractions. They review equivalent fractions and use an analog clock to create and add fractions. Pupils work in groups to complete two fraction worksheets.

Using a Smart Board, or a plain ol' white board or chalkboard, the teacher pulls up a grid and demonstrates how squares and rectangles can be divided up into equal parts. The class will get their own graph paper to draw shapes and divide...

Elementary schoolers participate with their teacher's instruction to learn to add and subtract fractions and mixed numbers. They use fraction strips to complete addition and subtraction problems. A step-by-step script is provided to help...

Project this visual fraction problem for the entire class, covering up the explanation below. Learners examine two rectangles segmented into equal parts, each with part shaded. They convert each into fractions and reduce to lowest terms...

Students add and subtract fractions and mixed numbers. In this fractions worksheet, students learn how to add and subtract mixed numbers based on their knowledge of adding and subtracting fraction with a teacher led question and answer...

Learners can actually see the numerators and denominators as they examine three segmented shapes. For each, they must write a fraction representing the shaded regions of the shape. Only one of these can be simplified, so decide whether...

Need a unit to teach fractions to fourth graders? Look no further than this well-developed and thorough set of lessons that takes teachers through all steps of planning, implementing, and assessing their lessons. Divided into eight...

In this math worksheet, students examine 32 fraction circles with different fractional parts shaded in each. Students write the fraction that goes with each picture.

Fourth graders participate in a activity that is about the finding of different fractional sizes with the help of pattern blocks. They define the vocabulary terms of numerator and denominator. The activity also uses geometry and relates...

Add another strategy to the toolboxes of young mathematicians with this elementary math activity on using number lines to add and subtract fractions.

What is the difference between weather and climate? This is the focus question of a lesson that takes a deeper look at how weather data helps determine climate in a region. Using weather and climate cards, students decide...

Kids complete three different activities to better understand how to identify ratios and then write them in simplest form. Ratios are represented by fraction strips of two different colors. Pupils write what ratio of blue to red is...

Students use paper cups and colored chips to observe properties of operations with real numbers. As a class, students brainstorm and use manipulatives to demonstrate associative, commutative, distributive identity and inverse properties....

In this math worksheet, students find the fractions that represent the shapes in the pictures. The first square has an example for them to follow.

In this recognizing fractions worksheet, students read a review that shows shaded and unshaded parts and identifies the numerator and denominator and apply the information to write the fractions for the shaded and not shaded parts of...

Help your third graders become familiar with equivalent fractions for one-half by having them create a quilt. They will use triangles to create a quilt of equivalent fractions over a period of 6 days. As they create the quilt pieces they...

In this cross-curricular sampler of worksheets, students determine the meaning of specialized vocabulary and to understand the precise meaning of grade-level-appropriate words, describe and connect the essential ideas, arguments, and...

 Young mathematicians respond to a series of comprehension questions after reading an article about simplifying fractions.

Split the work three ways. Learners use their knowledge of fractions to solve problems dealing with splitting up work loads evenly between three groups. Scholars determine the fractional portion of work each group will do along with...

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...

Young mathematicians compare two fractions with like denominators and then move to the next level to compare fractions with unlike denominators. They will first try to use mental math to make educated guesses. There are a few guidelines...

Third graders use fractions to describe part of a set. In this fractions lesson, 3rd graders are introduced to fractions through a book and use pattern blocks to describe a fraction as a part of a set. This lesson includes a scripted...

In this math worksheet, students will read about the definition of fractions. Students will read about and practice equivalent fractions, simplifying fractions and adding and subtracting fractions.

Young scholars add and subtract fractions and mixed numbers with unlike denominators. They "fish" for and solve a number of fraction problems requiring adding, subtracting, finding equivalent fractions, and using mixed numbers.
