Comparing Fractions Worksheet: Number Line & Fraction Word Problems
Math, Number Lines, Fractions, Grade 3, 4, 5, Teacher Tools, Assessments, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets, Word Problems
Here’s a ready-to-go, visual assessment of your students’ understanding of ordering and comparing fractions (with like denominators)! They simply cut and paste to show their knowledge of this topic. A worksheet with three comprehension questions is also included! How to Use this Product: Print a two-page worksheet for each student. Do not double-side as they will be cutting. Students cut out the eighths and order them on the number line. I recommend they start with 4/8 and glue it at the halfway point benchmark to space them evenly. Students cut out the sixths and order them on the number line. I recommend they start with 3/6 and glue it at the halfway point benchmark to space them evenly. Your early finishers can cut out the last four challenge fractions and determine where they fall on the number line. This allows them to start to practice early equivalent fraction ideas. Assign students some or all of the comprehension questions on the second worksheet. These questions help students begin to compare fractions with unlike denominators and look for simple equivalent fractions (one half and one whole) in a visual way. This product is designed to be a simple and quick assessment of fraction concepts: comparing and ordering fractions with like denominators, using a number line, common fraction benchmarks, and early fraction equivalency ideas. Of course, you could also use it as an activity in your unit, a homework worksheet, or a math centre. Grades to Use With: This product is well-suited for students in grades 3-5. It could also be used in middle school special education classes.

Probability Word Problems Middle School Probability of Compound Events
Math, Statistics, Fractions, Decimals, Percentages, Grade 6, 7, 8, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Worksheets
This middle school (grades 6-8) probability lesson and worksheet has three parts to help your class understand the probability of compound events (2 events that both occur but do not affect one another) and how to write probabilities as decimals and percentages. How it Works: There are two "casino games" presented. Each has two steps and specific rules. 1) Students first determine the theoretical probability (in fractions, decimals, or percents) of the casino game that has a spinner and a die and three different outcomes. 2) Students next determine the theoretical probability (in fractions, decimals or percents) of the casino game that has a penny and a die and three different outcomes. 3) Finally, students will compare the two games and pick which game they would choose to play using their math calculations as justification. Students can use fractions, decimals, or percents to figure out the theoretical probabilities from these two games. They will notice that all the outcomes in one game will always add to 1.00 or 100% This lesson is specifically created to target 7th Grade Statistics Learning Outcomes 7.SP.C.5 and 7.SP.C.8 What's Included: 5 Page PDF- Ready to Print and Use! - Teacher Instructions - 3-Page Student Worksheet with 2 Casino Games, Calculation Tables, and Written Reflection - COMPLETE ANSWER KEY INCLUDED If you like this activity, check out other probability options in my store!

Multiplication with Mixed Numbers
Common Core, Math, Fractions, Multiplication and Division, Grade 5, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets, Word Problems
This set of worksheets provides a structured approach to become proficient with multiplying mixed numbers. The material is organized into eight sets of differentiated material: Set 1. Students practice the basic skill of converting between mixed numbers and improper fractions. Set 2. Match up mixed numbers and improper fractions, reinforcing the work of Set 1. These first two sets of worksheets are groundwork for the following sets. Set 3. Multiplying mixed numbers and integers: This is used as an introduction to multiplication of mixed numbers as there is only one number to convert to a fraction and some simple cancelling down and simplification . Set 4. Students now multiply mixed numbers with fractions. Set 5. This utilizes the Open Array Model, a visual representation, to support the multiplication of two mixed numbers. Set 6. Multiplication of two mixed numbers without the aid of visual support. Set 7. A mix of multiplication problems involving mixed numbers and integers, fractions, and mixed numbers. Set 8. Word Problems. Most sets offer two difficulty levels. The second level introduces larger denominators and integers, providing an extra challenge for advanced learners or those ready to push their skills further. Students get to practice cross-multiplication, finding common denominators, applying the distributive property, and reducing fractions to their simplest form. How Many worksheets exactly ? The worksheets are virtually limitless. With a click of a button, numbers are randomized, which means that each worksheet is different. These worksheets are ideal not just for class time practice but also for math centers, end-of-lesson activities, or as resources for substitute teachers, homework assignments, requiring minimal instructions ... and there is no preparation - CLICK PRINT and GO Answers are generated automatically with each new worksheet.

Math Journal: Experimental Probability with Two Independent Events
ELA, Math, Percentages, Fractions, Statistics, Writing, Grade 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Activities
Math Journal: Experimental Probability with Two Independent Events This resource serves as a helpful teaching tool for educators focusing on the concepts of experimental probability and theoretical probability of two independent events in middle school mathematics. It offers an engaging math journal entry exercise that allows students to explain their mathematical thinking in pictures, numbers, diagrams, and words. How to Use: Students are given the following question: You have a six-sided die and a penny. If you roll the die twice and flip the penny twice, which is more likely: to get two sixes on the die or two heads from the penny? Explain your thinking using pictures, numbers, and words. Can you figure out the percentage chance of each event happening? Give students dice, coins, and mini whiteboards to work with so they can start to test out their ideas and theories. Encourage students to tackle the penny first as there are fewer results when flipping two coins. Suggest that students work together in pairs or small groups and use a table or chart to record the experimental options that could occur. You may want to start by teaching a mini-lesson about the probability of two independent events: that one multiplies the probability of each event to determine the probability of BOTH events. Grades to Use With This resource is ideal for use with students in grades 5-9 but can also be used as special education material or enrichment content for gifted children aged between grades 4-6. Finally, it could be used in a high school special education classroom. What's Included: This two page PDF is ready to print and go!

Addition and Multiplication of Mixed Numbers and Improper Fractions with Doubling a Recipe
Math, Fractions, Grade 4, 5, 6, 7, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Activities
Butter Tart Recipe ( based on my grandma's actual delicious family recipe!) Here is a real-life example to help students practice adding and multiplying mixed numbers and improper fractions. When students ask, "When will we ever use this in real-life?!" you can show them this lesson and say that working with fractions is so common in baking. This delicious activity will allow students to practice using fractions with a realistic everyday example: baking! Students will take a recipe that has several fractions in it and double it. Half a cup of something becomes a cup and 3/4 of a cup becomes 1 and a half cups. After that, they need to figure out how much of each ingredient would be needed if the recipe was made five times bigger (perhaps in a bakery setting or for a large event). I encourage my students to use different strategies to complete this task: drawing pictures with squares, repeated addition, or multiplication. Boxes for diagrams and math calculations are included to encourage students to show their work. You could even have different students come up to show their personal strategies to the rest of the class. As an extension, students can bring in their own recipes from home in the next class and double them or multiply them by five as well. You might even want to actually make something tasty to eat too!

Theoretical & Experimental Probability: Hands-on Math Task with Fractions and Percentages
Math, Percentages, Fractions, Statistics, Grade 4, 5, 6, 7, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Activities
Theoretical and Experimental Probability: A Hands-On Math Exercise (with Fractions and Percentages) This is a ready-to-use, engaging, two-page math activity designed for intermediate students in grade levels 4 through 7. The product lets your students easily conduct a simple probability experiment that will help them grasp the concepts of theoretical and experimental probabilities. They will also tie this learning into other math topics by converting fraction results into percentages. Items Needed: Paper bags filled with items that are red, yellow blue, and green. Ideal items can be Legos, blocks or counters. Bags should contain amounts of items that will easily convert from fractions to percentages- so 5 items, 10 items, 20 items, or 25 items are ideal. Features: Fits seamlessly into any probability or percentage unit Serves as excellent practice for reinforcing equivalent fraction and percentage concepts How to Use: Split students into small groups. Give each group a bag of items and a worksheet (double-sided) for each member. Students will explore their bag: count the total number of items, count how many there are of each colour, write each colour as a fraction, and convert that to a percentage. This is the theoretical probability of each event. Then they perform the experiment: pulling one item from the bag and replacing it twenty times. They will use a tally chart to record the colours pulled. They will turn their results (fractions out of 20) into percentages. This is the experimental probability. Finally, students reflect on if the theoretical and experimental probabilities matched or did not and why that could be. Grades to Use With: This activity is designed for students in grades 4-7 who are learning about equivalent fractions, percentages, and probability experiments. What's Included: 3 page PDF: Title Page and 2-page handout. Copy double sided and you are ready to go!
