Teaching Fractions on the Number Line


Teach Fractions on the Number Line
 When we teach fractions, we usually begin with pies or pizzas. We cut them up, teach the fraction names and such. Then Common Core Standard decides that students must know how to put fractions on the number line.  {Panic}

All of my students that have never done this before completely flipped out on me (so did their parents). It was just too strange and difficult to figure out. I came up with an activity that takes the simplicity of a pizza and added the number line to it.

Watch the video below to see how I to teach this concept and download this freebie from my blog shop by clicking and dragging it to the shopping bag on the right side. This video came from my sister site, Kids Cog Works.

  8. Hi Jessica! Thanks for taking the time to write me. I do have an RSS feed button that you can click on just beneath the Pinterest icon. You also can follow by email, newsletter, or on Facebook. I have different types of content on Facebook which is why I chose to use that widget instead of a follower widget.

    Feel free to email me any time with your questions.
