What educators are saying

Vocabulary on it's own is a big struggle for my kiddos, so math vocabulary is even harder. This was the PERFECT resource to use! Colorful, pictures, and appropriate definitions for my 3rd graders. It is a permanent fixture in my fraction unit.
I love using these for my math word wall! They're great for students' to use as a reference material.

WHY? Fractions and decimals can be a challenging concept for students. By explicitly teaching academic math vocabulary for fraction and decimal terms, you’re providing students with the tools they need to be successful.

Mastering fraction and decimal vocabulary will prevent student misconceptions and help students feel more comfortable discussing and explaining their thinking during your fraction & decimal unit.

Incorporate math vocabulary as a regular part of your math block by continuously reviewing and helping students make meaningful connections to fraction and decimal academic terms.

Display these fraction & decimal vocabulary cards on a math word wall for students to reference. Post these math vocabulary cards on the board every time you’re engaging students in a fraction lesson or fraction activity. Use the small versions for students' interactive math notebooks.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Understand a fraction 1/𝘣 as the quantity formed by 1 part when a whole is partitioned into 𝘣 equal parts; understand a fraction 𝘢/𝑏 as the quantity formed by 𝘢 parts of size 1/𝘣.
Understand a fraction as a number on the number line; represent fractions on a number line diagram.
Explain equivalence of fractions in special cases, and compare fractions by reasoning about their size.
Explain why a fraction 𝘢/𝘣 is equivalent to a fraction (𝘯 × 𝘢)/(𝘯 × 𝘣) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions.
Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark fraction such as 1/2. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model.
