Learning to add fractions with different denominators presents a big hurdle for many young mathematicians. Simplify the process for learners with this series of practice problems involving the friendly fractions tenths and hundredths....

Everyone loves popcorn! Use this treat to teach math concepts including place value, estimating, graphing, and volume. Eight possible activities are included, and they can be modified to fit all grade levels. 

See fractions visually with these eight images, each of which has a matching numerical fraction. The images have a row of objects representing the numerator and denominator. This is a nice way to show what a fraction actually means.

Where would 3/4 be on the number line? Project this fraction problem as an all-class warm up, asking scholars to complete it on their own before revealing the detailed explanation below. Using a number line segmented into quarters, they...

A number line serves as the medium to display visual fractions as scholars examine two points along its segmented length. The line is split into quarters and scholars determine which fraction is represented by two letters labeled at...

Fractions are easier to grasp when scholars can see them on a number line, so have them create the number lines themselves! For each of 10 fractions, they draw a number line and mark where along the fraction it would be. There are no...

Have scholars represent these fractions by drawing a number line for each. They segment the number line based on the denominator, then mark an x based on the numerator. Do one of these together before sending pupils off to do this...

Each of these fractions has an accompanying number line, segmented only by lines. Scholars match the fractions to the corresponding number line based on how many total segments (denominator) and the line circled (numerator). This...

Make fractions easier with a visual representation along a number line. There are eight fractions here for scholars to match to their corresponding number lines. Although this is a good idea, the formatting isn't ideal. Ask kids to...

Seventh graders practice combining decimals and fractions to find sums which are either greater than 4 or less than 5. Students first approximate the value of each fraction and decimal, then they look for combinations to fit the guidelines.

Enhance your next lesson on probability with a text rich presentation intended to teach the language associated with probability. The use of decimals, fractions, and percents are discussed as well are the terms, likely, unlikely, and...

When you see a flower or a tree in nature do you see the math? This web resource contains many ideas for using fractals in a math class including Sierpinski’s triangle, Koch's Snowflake, and the Jurassic Park Fractal. Additionally, it...
