Foundational fraction equivalence, ordering, and operations across the rational number system. Addresses multi-digit computation, decimal conversions, and the distinction between rational and irrational numbers.
A comprehensive diagnostic suite for grades 2-5 designed to identify specific skill gaps in foundational math domains aligned to the Iowa Core standards. This series helps educators pinpoint exactly where students have discrepancies in place value, arithmetic, and early rational numbers.
A comprehensive set of progress monitoring probes focused on 2nd and 3rd-grade number sense and fractions for 4th-grade students working on foundational skills.
An engaging, fair-themed unit where students explore fractions through interactive games, visual models, and hands-on activities. Students will learn to identify, represent, and compare fractions like halves, thirds, and fourths.
A carnival-themed math unit where students explore fractions through fair games and attractions. Students learn to identify, represent, compare, and order fractions using visual models like tickets, snacks, and prizes.
A fair-themed math unit where students explore fractions through interactive carnival games and activities, focusing on identifying, representing, and comparing parts of a whole.
A series of lessons using a pixel-art theme to help 2nd grade students master place value (hundreds, tens, and ones) and foundational fractions using visual grids and money.
A series of small-group sessions designed to build foundational fraction skills, from basic identification of parts of a whole to understanding fractions greater than one and fractions of a set. Each session is designed for a 15-20 minute timeframe.
A series of targeted interventions focusing on foundational fraction concepts, specifically partitioning and representing fractions on number lines.
A comprehensive journey from area models to linear representations of fractions. Students explore the interval between whole numbers, partition number lines into equal segments, and locate fractions as distances from zero, extending their understanding to values greater than one.
A sequence of two lessons focusing on social-emotional learning and introductory math concepts. Students learn about fair sharing through fractions and the positive impact of kindness on their community.
This sequence connects geometry to fractions by teaching students to partition shapes into parts with equal areas. Students move from intuitive sharing to precise geometric partitioning, learning that equal shares of identical wholes need not have the same shape.
A 2nd-grade geometry unit that transitions from tiling rectangles with square units to partitioning shapes into halves, thirds, and fourths. Students develop spatial reasoning and foundational fraction concepts through hands-on construction and 'fair share' scenarios.
A 5-lesson 2nd Grade math unit exploring fractions through the lens of a bakery theme. Students learn to distinguish equal shares, partition shapes into halves, thirds, and fourths, name unit fractions, and understand that more shares result in smaller pieces.
This sequence establishes a foundational understanding of fractions as equal parts of a whole area or region. Students progress from partitioning shapes to naming unit fractions, building non-unit fractions, and applying their knowledge to real-world contexts.
