These relationships will be core to future lessons in which rods are used as measurement tools to place and locate
numbers on number lines.
Across grade levels, games address specific standards and skills, such as using frequency tables, adding fractions, or identifying
points on a number line.
This article
focuses on number line tools, because a mental number line is quite likely the most flexible, adaptable, and powerful tool.
Walking on this number line physically reinforces beginning number concepts such as counting, sequencing, number recognition, and relationships while developing gross motor coordination.
But the idea that fractions are actual numbers that
fall on the number line — rather than pieces of something larger — is emphasized.
Each poster shows the fraction as a part of a shape, as a fraction of a set of objects, and a fraction as a rational
number on a number line.
This puzzle asks students to match a collection of fractions represented with a circular model to a single
point on the number line.
A Represent a fraction 1 / b
on a number line diagram by defining the interval from 0 to 1 as the whole and partitioning it into b equal parts.
In the ST Math game JiJi Cycle, students encounter visual representations of fractions as pie shapes and must move the balloon platform to the correct
place on the number line.
B Represent a fraction a /
b on a number line diagram by marking off a lengths 1 / b from 0.
Mixed Numbers
on Number Lines Worksheets These Number Line Worksheets will produce problems for the children to correctly mark the mixed numbers on the given number lines.
Students locate positive and negative whole numbers
on a number line by scaling the number line by powers of ten.
Decimals on Number Lines Worksheets These Number Line Worksheets will produce problems for the children to correctly mark the mixed numbers on the given number lines.
Using a combination of behavioral and neuroimaging methods, he and his colleagues examine how children develop foundational number - processing abilities, such as the ability to judge which of two numbers is larger or to estimate numbers»
position on a number line; why these basic cognitive processes sometimes go awry; and how to help children with serious deficits in numerical processing.
Very basic worksheet to show students how to place fractions
on a number line when working with probabilty.
Lesson 6.8: Infuse this lesson as a routine... look at skip counting by fractional amounts using concrete models and
showing on the number line.
Meanwhile, a Swiss team reported in 2011 that a game that involves placing a
spaceship on a number line helped eight - to ten - year - old dyscalculics with arithmetic.
Lesson 1 - Writing inequalities in words and
on a number line Lesson 2 - Solving inequalities Lesson 3 - Inequalities in graphs (shading regions) Normally lesson 3 is at least 2 lessons, so I have attached additional worksheets.
Some students might estimate that the solution is between 3 and 4 because 1 3/4 lies between 1 1/2 and 2,
which on the number line are the points at which the 1/2 unit segment, laid end on end, falls exactly three and four times.
Modeling 12 divided by 2 and other basic facts with 2 as a divisor will convince students that whole number division works quite
well on a number line.
It will become clear to students that 8 divided by 1/2 equals 16, and they can illustrate that
fact on a number line by showing how a segment 1/2 units in length divides a segment 8 units in length exactly 16 times; it divides a segment 12 units in length 24 times; and so on.
Students take turns rolling the dice and moving their clothespins until one student passes the
+20 on the number line.
If the white die is +2 and the red die is -5, the student figures the total (2 - 5 = -3) and moves the clothespin to the
-3 on the number line.
If the white dice are +2 and +4 and the green dice are -5 and -6, the total is -LRB-[2 + 4]- [5 + 6] = -5) and the student moves the clothespin to the
-5 on the number line.
Objective: By the end of the lesson, students will be able to apply unit interval and multiunit interval principles to label missing numbers
on number lines using informal measurement tools.
Modeling of lessons inspired by Math in Practice Grades 3 — 5 Lessons Slides Elapsed Time Open Number Lines (15 minutes intervals) Time Interval Word Problems from K — 5 Teaching Resources SCCCR Explained — a blog by Michael Jerrell and Kristen Hahn Additional Resources: Fractions

An example: One question on a sample math exam asks middle - school students to solve four equations, then click and drag each equation to
spots on a number line that represents the right answer.
Solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of time intervals in minutes, e.g., by representing the
problem on a number line diagram.
