Fractions Teach Multiplication Using Base 10 Blocks This video is pretty self explanatory, so I won't put too much here in the way of words. People don't read these posts much anyway just look at the pictures and watch the videos...so: But for those interested in a little more in the way of training for parents or teaches, with little kids you don't need to write symbols to start. (By little kids I mean 6 and under.) Just do what you see here and talk about it. Here again I want to drive home the point that all we are doing is counting and basically I am teaching him to count and count quickly using fractions manipulatives. Introduce skip counting early and sing songs and play and this whole problem can be avoided...too many teen-agers have this exact same problem, they are having trouble with math (particularly algebra) because they can't even multiply and having a calculator doesn't help. They were trying to spare students the pain of memorization and drill.
Grade 4 Common Core Math - 4.NF.2 Activities Lesson Activity Ideas:Benchmark Fraction Activities:It is important for students to learn the benchmarks of 0, 1/2, and 1. These same benchmarks are also helpful when comparing mixed numbers. Below is a possible question to pose to your students.Place fractions on a number line.Compare fractions with questions like:Is 1/3 closer to 0, 1/2, or 1? Warm-Up Activities:As part of a daily warm-up, ask students to place numbers on a number line. Good Questions for Comparing Fractions:Have students select 3 digit cards at random.
Fraction Exercises with Shapes and Number Lines September 28, 2012 Continue learning to identify and count fractions with this new set of interactive exercises. Building on the skills learned in our fraction exercises for first and second graders, this set of problems introduces more numerator values to students while continuing to apply both a variety of shapes and number lines to the student's learning experience. Lots of Shapes Fractions are inherently visual and a solid foundation in fraction identification and problem-solving application requires the consistent use of a variety of colored and divided shapes. Applying Fractions to the Number Line In addition to shapes, number lines play an important (and often overlooked) role in mastering fraction skills. Number lines also allow students to visualize fractions in an entirely different way. Additional screenshots:
Learn How to Measure Angles through Time! To help learn how to measure angles take a look at the two clocks that are shown here. The red line segments that are drawn over the hands of the clocks are the sides of the angles. The measure of the angles deals with the distance between the two hands of the clock. In this example, the clock on the right has a great distance between the two hands. The most common way to measure an angle is by degrees. Use the following colors to understand the examples below: When both sides of the angle are on top of each other, the angle is 0°. When both sides of the angle are completely opposite each other, the angle is 180°. We are interested in determining how far apart the two sides of the angle are when they are in between 0° and 180°. Take a look at the first example. along the line on the protractor. Now, take a look at the blue side of the angle. The blue line goes across the numbers 40° and 140°. Again, we lined up the red side of the angle along the line on the bottom of the protractor.
Grid Paper PDFs Free Online Graph Paper / Grid Paper PDFs Downloadable and very printable, I find these PDFs extremely useful. Tip number one! Though I do return the correct header for a PDF, sometimes Explorer gets confused when downloading... Tip number two! Some people may need to turn off the option in Adobe's Acrobat reader "shrink to fit" which may resize the grid slightly to fit your printer's printable area. Tip number three! If you want the hexes aligned with the other edge of the paper, just make your paper size "11 x 8.5" and print the result in landscape mode!

Graphing Polynomials With A 7 Year Old. If you've played with blocks and done the lessons for YEARS this stuff is easy by the time you reach the ripe old age of 7. Ot you can wait ten years until your kids are 17 and watch the pain and frustration mount until the domestic tranquility leave your house hold they hate math, they hate school, and they hate they teachers and of course they hate you and let you know it sometimes at the top of their lungs. Make math fun and easy and now they don't hate going to school anymore in fact they might like going because people will think they are smart because people think people who can do math are smart whether they are or not...but anyway remove the pain and domestic tranquility returns. Maybe it isn't that bad for you, maybe you're just tired of your kid being sad at school because of math. Maybe you shouldn't wait till high school... Or you could avoid the problems in the first place and let me teach you to teach your kids math. Algebra is Fun If You Do It Right. "Can we do algebra?!"
