This problem provides students an opportunity to find equivalent fractions and carry out some simple additions and subtractions of fractions in a context that may challenge and motivate students. Users need to download, print, and cut-out the fraction jigsaw. Then, they must arrange the square pieces right-side up so that the edges that touch contain equivalent fractions. The Teachers' Notes page offers rationale, suggestions for implementation, discussion questions, and ideas for extension and support.

In this problem students use a visual representation of fractions to compare fractions. Students are given two fractions and using the fraction wall they must compare them and find the difference between them. A Teacher's Notes page, hints, solutions, and printable pages are provided. The goal of this problem is for students to compare the two fractions given by using the visual fraction wall or their knowledge of equivalent fractions and subtracting fractions.

Welcome to a Fractions Review with Mr. J (Spanish version)! Need a refresher on how to add fractions, subtract fractions, multiply fractions, and/or divide fractions? Everyone needs a refresher from time to time, so this video is for you if you're looking for help with fractions. Mr. J will go through examples of adding fractions (like and unlike denominators), subtracting fractions (like and unlike denominators), multiplying fractions, and dividing fractions.

About Math with Mr. J: This channel offers instructional videos that are directly aligned with math standards. Teachers, parents/guardians, and students from around the world have used this channel to help with math content in many different ways. All material is absolutely free.

Mr. J is very good at walking you step by step to teach you upper grade math, 5-6 grade math. I like using his videos to teach my students in class. I can pause it and have them use their white boards to practice with Mr. J to understand how to do the lesson step by step.

The focus of the Fractions and Their Parts intervention is understanding fractions as equal parts, their written form, and the terms numerator and denominator. It has two phases. Phase 1 uses paper folding. Phase 2 uses drawing and introduces the vocabulary terms..

This problem gives students practice in calculating with fractions, using factors and multiples, finding equivalent fractions, logical reasoning, and working systematically. Students use clues to determine the total number of discs in a game and the fraction represented by each color. The Teachers' Notes page offers rationale, suggestions for implementation, discussion questions, ideas for extension and support, and a printable (pdf) worksheet of the problem.

Compare fractions (halves, quarters, eighths) that make up a whole by drawing toppings on pizzas and cutting the pizzas into slices!

Visit Gabby's pizza shop to help Adi take pizza orders from customers. Viewers learn fractions that make up a whole by drawing pizza toppings in halves and quarters and cutting the pizzas into one eighth slices.

Learning Objective:
To partition objects into equal parts and name the parts, including halves, fourths, and eighths, using words.

This task involves fraction multiplication that can be solved with pictures or number lines.

This exploratory problem provides students a way to consolidate their understanding of halving and halves and gives students experience of mathematical proof. The students are given multiple images of squares split in half. The goal is to prove how they are correctly halved and to think of other ways to split a square into two halves. The Teachers' Notes page offers rationale, suggestions for implementation along with a PowerPoint presentation, discussion questions, ideas for extension and support, and printable (pdf) worksheets of the problem.

This problem consolidates children's understanding of halving in a spatial context and will help them to develop their powers of visualization. The students are given four different shapes and the goal is to divide them each into two parts that are exactly the same. The Teachers' Notes page offers rationale, suggestions for implementation, discussion questions, a link to an extension activity, Same Shapes (cataloged separately), and a link to a simpler activity, Halving (cataloged separately).

These two fraction division tasks use the same context and ask ŇHow much in one group?Ó but require students to divide the fractions in the opposite order. Students struggle to understand which order one should divide in a fraction division context, and these two tasks give them an opportunity to think carefully about the meaning of fraction division.

This three-act math task utilizes videos and questioning to help students explore multiplying fractions.

The purpose of this task is to help students see the connection between aÖb and ab in a particular concrete example. The relationship between the division problem 3Ö8 and the fraction 3/8 is actually very subtle.

These problems are meant to be a progression which require more sophisticated understandings of the meaning of fractions as students progress through them.
