Young mathematicians utilize video, the internet, and hands-on learning experiences in order to recognize that fractions aren't as "scary" as they first appear, and that we use them every day in our lives. The hands-on activities in this...

Fourth graders participate in a lesson 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 lesson also uses geometry and relates it...

Young math whizzes solve 20 various types of equations related to fractions. First, they state each portion shaded as a fraction in lowest terms. Then, they determine the missing numerator or denominator and determine the value of each...

Which ones are equivalent? Scholars examine four fraction models to determine which ones represent the same fraction. This is a great way to help kids with numerators and denominators, as they can physically count the total number of...

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...

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...

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...

Elementary and secondary learners investigate various concepts related to the study of fractions. They use word problems during the introduction to parts of a fraction and proceed to some of the basic operations of using fractions. The...

Practice converting decimals into fractions. They draw a 3x3 grid and write in any nine common fractions with denominator 10 or 100 and with numerators 9 or less. The group listens as the teacher call out decimal numbers within the given...

For this polynomials worksheet, students solve and complete 16 different types of problems. First, they solve each of the fractional expressions shown. Then, students factor each polynomial and find their roots. In addition, they write...

In this rational expressions learning exercise, 9th graders solve and complete 15 different problems that include adding and subtracting rational expressions. First, they define Least Common Multiple to get a common denominator in an...

In this adding and subtracting fractions worksheet, learners solve 5 sets of problems related to the adding and subtracting of fractions. First, they identify that each fraction has a common denominator and then simplify by adding or...

Students study the concept of fraction using mathematical reasoning. In this problem solving fraction lesson, students use various methods to explain their reasoning in solving fractions. Students use a number of different prompts to...

In this fractions instructional activity, 6th graders solve 10 different problems that includes the subtraction of various fractions. They subtract the fractions with common denominators. Then, students subtract the numerators to...

Students are introduced to fractions, including operations with fractionsm converting fractions to decimals and percents. They are provided with activities that provide ample practice opportunities to reinforce the information from the...

College professor Dan Bach offers a review of various basic topics in arithmetic, pre-algebra, and algebra. Order of operations, exponents, square roots, variables, and combining terms are just a few of the many topics covered.
