It’s Monday, June 10, 2019, and time for Math at ClickSchooling!
Recommended Website:
(http://www.visualfractions.com/)
Age Range: 9-14 (Grades 4-9 approximately, with parental supervision)
This website provides free visual pictures, images, graphs, and animations of fractions and operations with fractions, to make them easier to understand and fun to practice.
Through the use of interactive exercises and visual aids (like number lines and circle graphs), students can learn how to:
- Identify fractions
- Rename fractions
- Compare fractions
- Add, subtract, multiply and divide fractions
The concepts are demonstrated through the visual images and explained in text format. Then, the student can practice their understanding with an interactive drill session.
Click on any topic from the menu in the middle of the home page and a new page opens with instructions for how to use the animations, graphs, and number lines to learn the fraction concept. In most instances you are shown a visual image and asked to type in the corresponding fraction.
Back on the main page, under “Special Features” you can access the “Fractions Games Page” to enhance learning. Don’t miss the free, printable “Fractions Worksheets” that really demonstrate operations with fractions in an engaging way.
Parents may want to read the “About” page for tips on how to use the site effectively.
This is a really simple and easy to use resource that will improve students’ skills in understanding fractions and their operations.
