What to Know About Fractions

The goal of this map is to aid in teaching elementary students in a unit on Fractions. The map includes information students need to know about fractions like the basics, finding equivalent fractions, finding common denominators, ordering fractions, and adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions. The map also includes videos, images, and websites the students could explore to get more knowledge about fractions.

Ordering Fractions

How to Order Fractions

Ordering fractions with similar denominators is easy

Ordering fractions with different denominators is trickier

Finding Common Denominators

How to Find a Common Denominator

When you have two fractions with different denominators, you have to find a common denominator between both fractions

Equivalent Fractions

The goal of this map is to aid in teaching elementary students about Fractions. The map contains basic information about fractions. The map also includes videos, images, and websites about fractions and the different sub topics.

Dividing Fractions

To divide two fractions, you flip the second fraction so the numerator is now the denominator and the denominator is now the numerator, and then you multiply both fractions

Adding Fractions

If two fractions have the same denominator, you simply add both numerators

If two fractions have different denominators, you must first find a common denominator before adding numerators

Subtracting Fractions

If two fractions have the same denominator, you simply subtract the second numerator from the first numerator

If two fractions have different denominators, you must first find a common denominator before subtracting numerators

Multiplying Fractions

To multiply two fractions, you simply multiply both numerators and multiply both denominators
