Students tackle fractions with confidence while using Fraction Attraction resources! So, your students know how to subtract fractions. They know how to find the common denominator, write equivalent fractions, subtract and write the answer in lowest terms...but, what happens when they are ready to subtract and find that the top numerator is smaller than the bottom?? “Subtracting Mixed Numbers with Renaming” shows the process of renaming in step-by-step details. This packet contains: • A Fold-up which would fit well in a math journal or as a stand alone resource. The fold-up explains and demonstrates how to rename when subtracting mixed numbers. • A full-sheet handout. This handout contains the same information as the tri-fold fold-up, just in a single sheet format. I find this sheet works well as a quick reference sheet. In addition, many students like to take it home and share with their parents. • Two page worksheet. The worksheet provides an organized format which will help the student practice the skill. The worksheet progressively increases in difficulty, until finally the student is completing the entire process. • A one-sided cut and paste worksheet is also included. The cut and paste sheet is not as structured as the two page worksheet. I would suggest using this page once students have practiced the skill for some time. • Answer keys for all worksheets are also included.

Perfect resource for a math journal! This fold-up gives students a basic understanding of powers of ten and exponents. It will serve as a valuable resource students can use throughout the school year. Also included with this product is a 2-sided practice page along with answer keys. The purchaser has two options with this packet. If time is an issue, you may want to use the ready made fold-up. Just print it out, cut in a few places and it is ready to go. Or if you prefer have your students assemble the fold-up by cutting and gluing each piece to the blank fold-up template. Some may be even more creative and use the cut apart page to make a matching game, take home activity, etc. If using the fold-up in a math journal, cut on the gray lower line for easier fit.

Help students distinguish types of fractions! This foldable features four types of fractions: Improper Fractions, Proper Fractions, Equivalent Fractions & Mixed Numbers. It works well in a math journal or as a stand alone resource. Each type is defined and an example is shown. This foldable can be run with all labels on. All your students need to do is cut, fold and glue. Or, you can run a blank template and a 'parts' page and allow your students to assemble. Still another choice would be to run just the cover and have students glue inside parts in or vice versa. It's really up to the teacher. If you don't teach all four types or if you'd prefer to teach them one at a time, simply cut the four types apart and present each type one at a time! I try to make my foldables as versatile as possible. When running copies, be sure to do a test print to make sure the front cover and inside are copied properly and fold up right.

This packet contains a ‘three examples + practice’ flip-book. • The 1st example provides a step-by-step guide for dividing a 3-digit number by a 1-digit number (no remainder). • The 2nd example shows how to divide a 4-digit number by a 1-digit number (with remainder). • The last example demonstrates how to divide a 3-digit number by a 2-digit number (with remainder). • The final section provides several practice problems along with an answer key. • In addition, I included some ready-made index tabs for marking each of the four sections.

For students who are either just getting started with the long division process or with students who are struggling with the process. The example shows a double digit dividend being divided by a single digit divisor. The final answer does have a remainder. The fold-up breaks the process down into six steps: divide, multiply, subtract, bring down (repeat if needed), remainder and check. The steps are listed and a visual representation is shown. The fold-up will fit nicely in a math journal (just trim on the grey line for a better fit). In addition, I decided to create a one page handout (handout is the one without the dotted cut lines) of the steps. My thinking is that this particular information might be a better resource without the flaps.

Perfect Partial Quotient resource for students and parents! Common Core stresses arming students with a variety of strategies to solve a problem. This includes division. I’ve spent countless hours trying to teach the long division algorithm to each and every student. The truth is, some kids JUST DON’T GET IT! Common Core gives the teacher permission to try teaching the concept using a different strategy. Amazingly, these struggling students seem to catch on fairly quickly to the Partial Quotient Strategy. Included in this packet is a one-fold fold-up. The cover gives a brief explanation of the partial quotient method. The inside gives two detailed examples. I have also included to 2-sided worksheet to use with students. Also, included is a detailed answer key. If you would like to see pictures of this product, please visit Mrs. B's Best Blog

Send this step-by-step guide home with long division homework! The purpose of a ‘We Flip for Math’ Flip Book, is to provide a struggling student witha step-by-step guide to take them through the process they are struggling with. I have various flip books available in my classroom, but only after I’ve taught the concept and we have practiced it a number of times. The complexity of some skills can be quite challenging for many students. Being able to remember all the steps can become overwhelming for some. A flip-book can help walk these children through the process. In addition, I have found flip-books can be helpful when sending homework home . Including a flip book can make for very happy parents! This packet contains three flip-books. • Single Digit Divisor Long Division, • Double Digit Divisor Long Division • Dividing BIG Numbers. BIG Numbers shows dividing a four digit dividend by a two digit divisor. While not the biggest of numbers, to a 5th grader, this is a BIG division problem. Not wanting to waste paper, I included several division problems students could use as practice problems. These problems can be found on the final page of the BIG Numbers Long Division book. These 3 cards, could be laminated and placed at a center. While working the division problems, the flip book could be used as a reference. To assemble each Flip Book simply run single-sided copies of all pages. Laminate for durabillity. Cut on the dotted line. Put the pages in sequential order-- cover should be on top. Bind or staple (binding works best) across the top!

Great strategy for those struggling with division! My 5th grade students really struggle with the concept of estimating to divide. When you throw in the terminology of 'compatible numbers' it seems to get even more confusing. I created this tri-fold-up for their math journals to help guide them through the process of using compatible numbers to estimate the quotient. This fold-up defines what a compatible number is and shows examples. To practice the skill, I have included a two-sided worksheet. This worksheet will allow students the opportunity to practice for success.. Answer key with possible answers is included.

Help your students understand how to work with multiples and factors! Until mastering what a factor and what a multiple is, a student is going to struggle to find the Least Common Multiple or the Greatest Common Factor. This realization is what prompted me to make this Working with Factors and Multiples pack. Included in this pack are 3 matchbook fold-ups. One of the fold-ups combines both factor and multiple. The other two fold-ups do not combine, but are set up to teach the vocabulary one at a time. Also included are practice pages. One 2-sided sheet combines practice on both factor and multiple. A second 2-sided practice sheet has factor only. And a final practice page focuses on multiple only. I also included instructions and pictures on how to assemble the matchbook fold-ups as well as how to copy the practice pages.
