In this fourths worksheet, learners find the shapes that show fourths. Students color in the images to illustrate 1/4 for the 6 problems.

Students discover the relationship between musical rhythms and fractions. They add musical notes together to produce fractions and create addition and subtraction problems with musical notes. Students complete worksheets and create their...

How do we know how long ago a dinosaur lived or an ancient fire pit was used? Scholars learn about the application of carbon dating and half lives to discover things about the past. They adjust the amount of radioactive carbon in the...

Make sure scholars know all about fractions and decimals — not just a fraction of the information. The 12th installment of a 21-part series is a mid-module assessment. Learners solve problems in the context of a birthday party and a...

And the beat goes on. The installment of the Math at the Core: Ratios series introduces time signatures in music. A musician shows the relationship between different types of musical beats. Working in pairs, classmates create beat...

Young mathematicians use fraction names and symbols to describe fractional parts of whole objects or sets of objects. They construct concrete models of fractions, and compare fractional parts of whole objects in a problem situation using...

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...

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.

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...

In this fraction instructional activity, learners manipulate paper by folding it to create different shapes and sizes, they explore the concept of fractions, and discuss their observations as a class. This is a great instructional...

In this halves worksheet, students circle the shape that shows two halves. Students solve 13 problems for the halves activity.

In this fourths worksheet, students study the various shapes and circle the shape that shows four fourths. Students solve 13 problems.

In this thirds worksheet, students study the shapes in each example and circle the shape that shows three thirds. Students complete 13 problems.

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.

Here is a fraction multiplication activity in which learners sharpen their math skills as they solve 10 problems that require them to multiply fractions with unlike denominators.

In this fraction multiplication worksheet, young scholars sharpen their math skills as they solve 10 problems that require them to multiply fractions with unlike denominators.

Focus on the second half of George Orwell's 1984 with this reading comprehension quiz. All multiple-choice, the questions center on major events in the novel.

Class members come up with a hypothesis on the number of decimal digits in the product of two decimals. Learners work in groups to complete several decimal multiplication problems. The results help groups develop a conjecture on the...

Learners solve 22 problems in which simple fractions with like denominators are added, subtracted and compared. Good practice for your third and fourth graders!

If your fifth graders have mastered fractions, push them to the next level! They multiply fractions by whole numbers and decimals (in the form of money math). The activity provides space for pupils to write out their work, based on two...

Teach discounts and sales with a straightforward worksheet. After reviewing the concept, pupils solve word problems related to dollars and percentages. The second half of the sheet prompts learners to continue solving problems related to...

At the end of a general physics course focused on light and electricity, you can administer this exam. Concepts covered include electromagnetism, circuits, induction, light rays, lenses and mirrors, characteristics of light, electron...

What makes fractions equivalent? Learners first use an interactive that shows equivalent fractions with fraction models and number lines. They then play a game where they must match sets of equivalent fractions with different denominators.
